Is Wheel Balancing Necessary After Tire Rotation?

[RyleeMarie]

It is essential to perform wheel balancing after rotating the car tires. Here is a brief introduction about wheel balancing: 1. A car wheel is an assembly consisting of a tire and a rim. However, due to manufacturing tolerances, the mass distribution of this assembly cannot be perfectly uniform. When the car wheel rotates at high speeds, it will create dynamic imbalance, resulting in wheel wobbling and steering wheel vibration during driving. 2. To prevent or eliminate this phenomenon, counterweights need to be added to the wheel under dynamic conditions to correct the balance at various edges. This correction process is what we commonly refer to as dynamic balancing, which typically involves installing balancing weights. These weights are made of lead alloy and measured in grams, such as 5g, 10g, 15g, etc. Don't underestimate their small mass - they generate significant centrifugal force when the wheel rotates at high speeds. Each balancing weight has a steel hook that can be clipped onto the edge of the rim.
