Subsequent replacements are to be installed in the conventional fashion, i.e. the dot on the tire is to be aligned with the valve stem and the wheel is to be balanced as normal.

That's what I've done on my past bikes

Actually, I live in a small town named Cornelius, just a little burg outside of Portland Oregon. It's my nickname for the place, it's one of the lowest income towns in the state.
