Roberttan 5th Gear December 17, 2013 Share December 17, 2013 On 12/14/2013 at 3:14 PM, Vinceng said: Robert, I was referring to the standard tyre rotation every 10K, 20K, 30K km, whereby both front wheels & tyres go to the rear (no balancing done), and both rear wheels & tyres go to the front ( balancing is done for this). Your shop balances all 4 wheels at every tyre rotation? What's the charges like? you can go round or ask your regular shop for the charges as I strongly recommend please confirm all 4 wheels balancing with rotation is too late to know your back wheels are unbalance when you tyre found uneven wear and shorten your suspension system ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since u r going to balance 2 wheels n do a rotation, might as well just balance the other 2 wheels. Only abt $12 more n u hv peace of mind that all yr wheels r properly balanced n yr tires n suspension wil last much longer. If the rear wheels r unbalanced, u might not feel it but its doing harm to yr suspension n tires. Also yr grip wun b as good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty dun realize the 2 at the back, although cannot b felt, is doing damage to the suspension n tires if out of balance. I just balance all 4 cos the cost is not much more n the car wil handle better n components wil last longer. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamburger Hypersonic December 19, 2013 Share December 19, 2013 i believe many like me will not bother to balance the 2 front wheels that are to be placed to the back, and for a very simple reason. it is already well balanced at the front when it was driven over 10k and there is no reason to balance them anymore. Any imbalance would be felt its not balanced. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
