Tire Balancing Service

Wheel-Tire Assembly Balance & Maintenance

The wheel-tire assemblies need to have a precise balance as they spin rapidly while driving. The slightest weight imbalance can cause a shaky driving experience that worsens at higher speeds. This wobbling will wreak havoc on tires and suspension parts causing rapid wear and tear. To ensure an even distribution of weight across the wheel assemblies, you should get them balanced every 8,000 miles or 6 months.

Symptoms of Tire Trouble Needing Maintenance

There are noticeable warning signs that show up in your driving experience when tires are due for maintenance. You shouldn’t wait for the recommended service interval if you notice tire problems because your safety could be at risk. If you notice any of these symptoms of tire trouble, you should get a prompt inspection and the recommended maintenance no matter what the miles:

• Rapid and uneven tire wear
• Veering or drifting to the side
• Wobbles or shaking in the steering wheel or cabin
• Tires losing pressure
