Tire Balancing in Fairfax, VA
Tire balancing should be part of your routine maintenance schedule, ensuring that you get the most out of your tires and fuel. Like New Automotive in Fairfax, VA, offers professional tire balancing, rotation, and installationservices near you today.
Why is Tire Balancing Important?
If your tire-wheel set isn’t properly balanced, you’ll begin to experience a wide range of issues. Your tires will start to wear out unevenly and prematurely, leading you to replace tires frequently. When your tire-wheel set is balanced correctly, you’ll experience increased handling, performance, and fuel efficiency.
How is Tire Balancing Done?
During a tire balancing service, one of our mechanics will securely place your tire-wheel set into our state-of-the-art balancing equipment. The wheel is rotated at high speeds to get an accurate measurement of the distribution of weight. Using that, we will determine what weight needs to be added to the interior and exterior of the wheel to balance the tires. Our expert technician will then adapt a small weight to the wheel to balance the tires.
Benefits of Tire Balancing
By getting your tire-wheel set balanced, you’ll begin to experience:
- A smoother ride
- Better gas mileage
- Even tire wear
- Prolonged tire life and drive train parts
How Often Should I Get My Tires Balanced?
We recommend that you get your tires balanced every time you get new tires installed and every 5,000 miles after that. Once your tires start to wear down, the balance gets affected. If you notice that the weight from a previous balancing service is no longer on your wheel-tire set, visit our store as soon as possible. Routine tire balancing is an important maintenance service to keep your tires protected.
Signs That You Need to Get Your Tires Balanced
- Vibrations when driving
- Uneven tread wear
- Steering that becomes less smooth over the life of the tires
- Pulling to one side
