What are the impacts of not performing wheel balancing?
1 Answers
The impacts of not performing wheel balancing include: 1. Abnormal wheel conditions can degrade the vehicle's handling feel, and in severe cases, cause steering wheel vibration; 2. It can also accelerate tire wear, leading to uneven wear; 3. Increase tire rolling resistance, thereby increasing fuel consumption; 4. It may have a certain impact on the service life of wheel bearings. Wheel balancing refers to the process of eliminating vibrations and additional force couples caused by unbalanced mass when the wheel rotates. Its significance lies in maintaining a balanced and stable state after the wheel starts rotating, minimizing impact on the tires. If you notice wheel or steering wheel vibration during high-speed driving, it indicates that wheel balancing is needed.
