Computerized Wheel Balancing

The Basics Behind Computerized Wheel Balancing Services atGlenn Dale, Tire, Auto & Roadside Assist Auto Services

Professionals use computerized wheel balancers to pinpoint weight differentiation within a tire and wheel assembly.

Computerized wheel balancers are highly accurate machines that identify the weight distribution problem areas within an assembly.

Ideally, a tire and its wheel should complement one-another, with both maintaining an equal amount of weight throughout the assembly.

In a perfect assembly, air will be even throughout the tire, and the wheel will be perfectly round in shape.

However, tires and wheels are nearly never perfect.

In fact, some tire manufacturers mark the lightest part of a tire so that drivers can easily match it to the heaviest part of the wheel.

Both time and normal tire and wheel usage will also gradually add imbalance to a tire and wheel assembly’s weight distribution.

The smallest difference in weight within an assembly can cause a great amount of damage and annoyance.

A computerized wheel balancing service will return the balance of your car or truck’s wheels to factory specifications.

Customer Testimonials

We stand by our work.

- The owner John is very knowledgeable and the whole staff is friendly. I came for an oil change and to have my tires serviced (rotation, alignment and balance) because I thought they needed it. John told me I didn’t need service to my tires and they rode very well; no need to spend the money on a service that wasn’t needed. We all know many establishments would try to push a service for a dollar so his honesty is appreciated. Reasonable pricing and great service. Highly recommend! Services: Tire rotations, Oil change

- I had slow leak from a nail puncture and I was told by another tire shop that run flat tires could not be fully patched. He said it would cost $75 for a temporary fix but he recommended replacing, so I bought another tire online. [...] Thomas did such great work that it was not a temp fix at all and basically let me know the other place did not know what they were talking about. I have had no issues with the tire and its been over 3 months. He also said the repair came with a lifetime warranty so this place is all good in my book. Highly recommend. Service: Tires
