Wheel balancing

Properly balanced tyres are important for driving comfort and long tyre life. Wheel balancing is crucial since unbalanced tyres can cause vibration, resulting in driver fatigue, premature tyre wear and unnecessary wear to your vehicle's suspension. At high speeds, a car with unbalanced wheels becomes dangerous. Braking becomes risky, tyre wear is greatly increased and the wheel bearings are subjected to additional stress and vibration. Tyres should be balanced when they are mounted on wheels for the first time or when they are remounted after repair. In most cases, when there is a vibration experienced on the steering wheel, it would be eliminated through the balancing of your tyres.
