Tire Truing Time

I have been busy with a bunch of PG tires today. I have been truing wheels and gluing and truing tires for about three hours and I have finished three cars! I'm not complaining (nor am I bragging) regarding the time spent on this task. I use a Tire Razor at 6 volts with a 220 grit and a finish with a 320 grit sandpaper. I know it depends on how much has to be done to get it "right", but on average, how long does it take you to true a set of wheels/tires?

Oh about 10 minutes give or take I guess, never bothered to time myself.

I spend a good deal more time truing wheels than tires on mine. After the wheels are done, I slip on the tires and the tires are trued very quickly with #100 followed by #220. The whole operation usually runs about 7 minutes per car, front and back, unless the wheels are bad enough to need straightening as well as truing.
