At AAA Tyre Distribution, we use computerized wheel balancing equipment to detect even the smallest weight imbalances in your wheel and tire assembly. Unbalanced wheels create vibrations that you can feel in your steering wheel, seat, or floorboard, especially at highway speeds. These vibrations not only make driving uncomfortable but also cause premature wear on your tires, suspension, and steering components.
During our wheel balancing service, our technicians mount each wheel on a high-precision balancing machine that identifies exactly where weight needs to be added. We then attach small weights to specific locations on the wheel to counter any imbalances. The result is a perfectly balanced wheel that spins smoothly, providing you with a comfortable ride, extended tire life, and protection for your vehicle’s suspension system.
When your wheels are out of balance, the consequences affect both comfort and safety. Persistent vibrations at certain speeds make driving unpleasant and tiring, reducing your alertness behind the wheel. The uneven forces created by imbalanced wheels cause tires to develop irregular wear patterns, reducing their lifespan by thousands of miles and costing you money on early replacements.
The harmful effects extend beyond your tires. The same vibrations that shake your steering wheel also stress your suspension components, wheel bearings, and steering system. Over time, this leads to premature wear and potentially expensive repairs. Regular wheel balancing every 5,000-7,000 miles or whenever you notice vibrations is the simple solution that prevents these problems, saving you money and ensuring a smooth, safe ride.
At AAA Tyre Distribution, our wheel balancing service is performed by certified technicians with specialized training and years of experience. We’ve invested in advanced computerized balancing equipment that measures imbalances with precision down to the fraction of an ounce. This technology allows us to achieve perfect balance that eliminates vibrations completely, unlike shops with outdated equipment that might only reduce symptoms temporarily. We take the time to clean mounting surfaces thoroughly and inspect your wheels and tires for additional issues that affect balance or performance.
