What Is Tire Balancing?

Wheels must be in balance or have an even distribution of weight. When they’re out of balance, they can cause vibrations as you drive, which leads to damage to the suspension and other problems. It also leads to excessive wear on the tires. To balance the wheels, you must add weights to the tires.

The service technician will place the wheel and tire on a tire balancing machine. The tire and wheel spin on the machine until it determines how much weight is needed to be balanced. The technician will add wheel weights to bring it into balance. Many times, the service team will perform wheel balancing with an alignment, but they’re two separate services.

Reasons for Tire Balancing

Tires need to be balanced to provide a smoother ride with no vibrations or noises. It also reduces wear and tear on the tires and gives you better gas mileage for more efficiency. You’ll also put less strain on the drivetrain, which will reduce the need for repairs.

Tires can get out of balance if you’re in an accident or hit something. You might hit a curb hard or a deep pothole that could cause issues. If your car is parked for a long time, it can lead to flat spots on the tires, which can create vibrations when you drive it again.
