All auto repair services and maintenance that deal with the care of your tires are crucial. Tires contact the road and give you a smooth and safe drive when in optimal condition. Proper tire balancing is an essential part of car maintenance that ensures that your vehicle will roll smoothly on the road and prevents premature tire wear. It involves appropriately calculating your tire and wheel weight ratios and then calibrating them properly to one another. The tires and wheel assembly's weight will be balanced using the even distribution of weight throughout each wheel and tire on the vehicle.
During tire balancing, your tire-wheel set is removed from your vehicle and placed into specialized equipment that simulates driving speeds and conditions while measuring the weight distribution of the set. The machine will pick up on any imbalances. Our expert service technicians will then add weights to counteract the imbalance and evenly distribute the weight.
One of our mechanics will securely place your tire-wheel set into our state-of-the-art balancing equipment during a tire balancing service. The wheel is rotated at high speeds to get an accurate measurement of weight distribution. Using that, we will determine what weight needs to be added to the interior and exterior of the wheel to balance the tires. Our expert technician will then adapt a small weight to the wheel to balance the tires.
Tire balancing will help with even tire wear, longer tire life, and a comfortable ride. It will allow the wheel and tire combination to be as equal in weight as possible. Out-of-balance tires can cause faster tread wear, poor fuel economy, and vibration in the steering wheel. Tire balancing and tire rotation are essential for proper tire care to help maximize tire lifespan and overall performance.
Out-of-balance tires can lead to uneven wear, vibration, and potentially unsafe driving performance. It is essential to balance tires frequently based on your car's requirements. Most manufacturers recommend tire rotation and tire balancing every 4,000 to 6,000 miles.
