So, what’s the difference? Mounting your tires is the heavy lifting. This is where we remove the old tire off of the metal rim, and seal the new tire onto it. When we balance your tires, we spin the wheel on a machine that helps us detect heavy spots. This is the act of fine-tuning, applying small weights to the rim, ensuring the tire spins smoothly, is balanced on all axes and your drive is wobble-free.
Keep in mind: after-market wheels may need a hub ring to properly centre the wheel.
The area of the cabin where you feel the vibration says a lot about where the balance is needed.
