Wheel Balance

The importance of having your wheels balanced

Not having your wheels balanced correctly usually causes a vibration in the steering wheel and dashboard which will eventually cause premature tyre wear and can cause damage to suspension parts.

If you find that your steering vibrates above a certain speed, this may be a sign that your wheels are not balanced properly, if left, this can not only be annoying when you drive, but may affect the performance of your vehicle.

At Modern Tyres we use the latest digital balancing equipment which have the latest technology balancing wheels to the nearest gram. When you purchase new tyres from Modern Tyres we always balance your wheels due to the small inconsistencies in the rubber compound that new tyres have.

You should also have your wheels checked or re-balanced after an impact with a kerb or pothole.
