Is Wheel Balancing Necessary When Rotating Front and Rear Tires?
1 Answers
Wheel balancing is necessary when rotating front and rear tires. Wheel balancing involves adding counterweights to the wheel while it is in motion to correct imbalances at various edges, ensuring the wheel remains balanced during rotation. The steps for wheel balancing are: 1. Remove the original counterweights before performing wheel balancing; 2. Use a specialized wheel balancer to measure the weight distribution of the wheel; 3. Add appropriately weighted counterweights at the corresponding positions. Wheel balancing is required in the following situations: 1. After installing new tires or repairing collision damage; 2. Uneven wear on one side of the front or rear tires; 3. The steering wheel feels excessively heavy or vibrates while driving; 4. The vehicle pulls to the left or right when driving straight.
