tire balancing

Rotation shop service

Tire balancing is the process of equalizing weight distribution around a wheel and tire assembly so it spins smoothly at high speeds.

Technicians attach small weights to the rim to counteract heavy spots.

Unbalanced tires cause vibration, uneven wear, and stress on suspension components: The steering wheel shakes—you probably need a tire balancing.
