Wheel Balance

The wheels and tires of your car are balanced with weights to give you a smooth riding experience. However, with time as the tire tread wears, this balance alters in-that it causes vibration and bounce in the tire when certain speeds are attained.  Our qualified technician at The Tire Source will balance the wheels of your car with a precision to fractions of a gram and mitigate the vibrations instantly.

Though it depends on the type of the car, generally, it would vibrate at speeds between 80 and 110 kph if the wheels were out-of-balance. The Tire Source has specialized machines for wheel balancing, where the wheel is mounted and made to spin to locate the heavier part. The technician balances the wheel by attaching a  weight on the opposite side of the heavier part. Even losing this balancing weight can be a probable cause of vibration of your car, though all tires gradually lose their balance with time.

Wheel balancing not only keeps the care vibration-free, but also increases the period of the life of tires and saves premature wearing of the steering and suspension components. Visit The Tire Source for all your wheel-balancing needs.
