Difference Between Wheel Balancing and Four-Wheel Alignment

[CoraAnn]

1. Wheel balancing refers to the process of adding balancing weights to the wheels when they rotate to achieve a balanced state. 2. Four-wheel alignment is based on the parameters of the vehicle's four wheels, adjusting them to ensure optimal driving performance. 3. The wheels of a car, composed of tires and rims, may not have perfectly uniform mass distribution, and since tires and rims are not perfectly round, high-speed rotation can cause wobbling or bouncing. 4. Four-wheel alignment mainly adjusts parameters such as camber, kingpin inclination, caster angle, etc., and requires adjusting the parameters of the drive wheels.
