Wheel balancing corrects uneven distribution of weight in the wheels. Imbalanced wheels can lead to vibration, excessive tire wear, damage to the suspension, and other problems.
During a tire balance service, your tires and wheels are mounted onto a tire balancing machine. The machine spins the tire and wheel assembly to measure the imbalance, so that a technician can precisely install the correct tire weights to achieve a properly balanced wheel and tire assembly. Often, wheel balancing and alignment happen during one service, but they shouldn’t be confused for the same thing!
Your vehicle might need a wheel balancing if you notice any of the following:
Uneven tire wear and vibration in your steering wheel, floorboard, or seat can signal it’s time for tire balancing. You may also want to have your tires balanced during a tire rotation, after a flat tire repair, or as part of your scheduled maintenance. Interestingly, the part of your car that trembles can indicate whether the front or back wheels need balancing. If it’s in the steering wheel, it’s likely your front tires. If it’s in the seats, the imbalance is in the back wheels.
