Maintaining the tire balance on your vehicle is critical to receiving satisfactory service from your tire investment. In addition to providing a smooth ride, balancing is a key component in tire wear.  Tveten’s Auto Clinic, can help you with your tire balancing, repair or rotation.  Call us at 253-588-5201.

Perhaps the most compelling reason for precision balancing comes from an obvious fact: vehicles are being made lighter and lighter. The heavier cars of yesterday actually helped smooth out the ride by dampening many vibrations before the driver could feel them.

Assume you have driven your tires 5,000 miles since their purchase and it’s time to rotate. Over the miles, turning left and right, hitting bumps and holes you could not see or avoid, and driving down uneven road surfaces have led to uneven tread wear on your tires. Perhaps a pothole has knocked-out your vehicle’s alignment (this creates uneven tire wear).

Besides rotating the tires and getting an alignment to set things right, you should also rebalance the tires. Even if you can’t feel vibrations, they are present. The uneven tread wear has created an imbalance that generates excessive heat and wear on your tires. Considering the hundreds of dollars you spent on your tires, a rebalance is a wise expenditure.   Give us a call 253-588-5201, to have Tveten’s Auto Clinic help you with your tire balancing, repair, or rotation, to keep you safe on the road.
