The tubes will only go in one way. You don't need to balance your tires, make sure you put the tires on the correct direction, there will be an arrow showing the tire's rotation. Make sure you line up the painted dot that's on the tire with the valve stem. Put a small amount of air in the tube when you put it in the tire to help prevent pinching it when installing the other side of the tire. Also put some baby powder on the tube when you install it.
More lube is better when installing and removing tires. If you haven't bought any tools yet you'll want three decent tire spoons, this shit is the best tire mounting lube I have ever used, you can also put some in a squirt bottle with warm water. Seriously, that shit is amazing, but you can also use Windex or some dish soap mixed with water in a squirt bottle. You will also want a valve core remover, or you can use these.
Don't be afraid to inflate the things to like 60psi to seat the bead. Sometimes you have to fill and deflate the tire a few times to seat the bead. Stay away from the bead when it's seating, when it seats it happens fast and it will take your finger off.
Lastly, don't buy this pile of shit compressor, spend the extra money and get a decent piston type.
Amazon has them or almost any auto parts store.
