Why You Need Properly Balanced Tires
They say balance is the key to a happy life, and if your tires could speak, they’d surely agree. Correctly balanced wheels don’t just keep you driving smoothly; they also reduce noise, vibration, and premature tread wear. If you feel you have unbalanced tires, or your handling feels off, stop in and let us check your wheel balance.
How to Tell if Tires Need Balancing:
- Your steering wheel vibrates at highway speeds.
- You feel your seat or floorboard vibrating at highway speeds.
- You notice scalloped or cupped wear patterns on your tires.
Our routine tire and wheel balancing service helps keep your vehicle running smoothly and confidently by ensuring that your tires are spinning as evenly as possible. Our service includes:
- Removing all of your tires and wheels

The wear on your tires’ treads from your day-to-day driving causes changes in the distribution of vehicle weight around the wheel.
A wheel balance carefully performed by one of our expert technicians can help return equilibrium and aid in decreasing any vibration you might feel in your steering wheel, seat, or floorboard. It also helps in proper tread wear and a longer life for your tires.
We recommend you have your wheels balanced every 3,000–6,000 miles (5,000 km–10,000 km), but it’s always a good idea to check your owner’s manual for a more specific recommendation.
