    Rupes LHR15

    Hey everyone, So I've seen a lot of people using the Rupes LHR21 with a 5 inch backing plate and some say it works great. Others say it's a little unbalanced compared to what the rupes usually is. If the 5inch backing plate works on the 21, shouldn't the 6inch backing plate work on the 15...
