Wheel Balance at Phil Gilbert Kia

Wheel Balance

Balancing is important to ensure safe driving. Balanced wheels guarantee a smooth, steady ride and prolong the life of your tyres. If a wheel is out of balance, it will cause a vibration that can be felt in the steering wheel. If the alignment is out, it can cause excessive tyre wear and steering or tracking problems.

You should balance your tyres every time you have new tyres fitted or when they are removed from the rim. As a general rule, you should check it once a year. Ask our Service Consultants for advice to make sure your tyres don’t suffer irregular wear.
