When should the tire dynamic balance be performed?

01 What is Dynamic Balance
When the overall mass distribution of the wheels is uneven, after they start rotating at high speed, a dynamic imbalance will occur, resulting in the wheels shaking and the steering wheel vibrating during the vehicle's movement.

To avoid or eliminate this phenomenon, it is necessary to adjust the balance of the various edge parts of the wheels by adding weights when the wheels are in motion. This adjustment process is called dynamic balance.

02 When is the right time to perform dynamic balance?

When you notice that the steering wheel shakes or makes rhythmic noises when the vehicle is traveling at high speed, or when the tires have been repaired, replaced, modified, or equipped with an air pressure monitoring device, you should conduct a tire dynamic balance test.

03 The Impact of Dynamic Imbalance
When the wheels continue to move in an unbalanced state, the following adverse effects will occur on the vehicle:
1. The uneven wear of the tires has intensified, and their service life has shortened.
2. Reduced control performance.
3. Accelerate the wear of the axle and the bearing.
4. Failure to calibrate for a long time will shorten the service life of the suspension and steering systems.
5. Affecting the comfort of passengers and drivers.
6. Increase in driving resistance or fuel consumption.

Imbalance in the wheel's dynamic equilibrium can either reduce the driving and riding comfort or even endanger driving safety. If you notice that your car has a problem with the wheel's dynamic balance, please promptly visit a Geely brand authorized service station for correction and repair.
