What is Wheel Balancing & Why it Matters?
When Should You Get Your Wheels Balanced?
Although Nissan doesn’t provide a specific time interval for wheel balancing, there are some moments when you should definitely have your wheels balanced. Situations like changing your tires, repairing or replacing a wheel, or experiencing a collision can all change the weight distribution of your wheels. When that happens, a wheel balancing is needed to re-distribute the weight evenly.
Signs You Need Wheel Balancing
If you’re not experiencing any of the situations mentioned above, there are still times when you should consider having your wheels balanced. Here are a few signs that indicate a potential imbalance:
- Vibrations in the steering wheel
- Rough ride or bumpy feel
- Uneven tire wear
- Noises from the tires
- Pulling to one side
Wheel Balancing Process at Avenue Nissan
At Avenue Nissan, wheel balancing starts with a visual inspection to check for any damage to the tires or wheels. From there, we mount the wheels on a balancing machine that spins them to find any spots where the weight isn’t evenly distributed. Once we pinpoint the imbalance, small weights are added to the rim to correct it. After that, we run a final check to make sure everything is properly balanced before the wheels go back on your vehicle.
