Should I balance my tires
Balancing means compensating for both the
weight of the tire & wheel after the tire is mounted . A wheel is out of
balance when one area is heavier or lighter than the rest. This can cause
irregular treadwear & vibration, & increase the stress on the front-end
parts, which may cause them to wear prematurely.
You should have your wheels balanced whenever a tire is replaced, when a balance
weight is moved or removed, & whenever you purchase new tires. Of course, at
the first sign of vibration or irregular treadwear, your car should be
thoroughly checked for wheel balance & alignment , & for worn or broken
mechanical parts.
