Benefits of Getting Your Tires Mounted and Balanced at
Saint J Subaru

What's the point of getting your tires mounted and balanced? This is a basic maintenance item that smooths out your drive and helps your tires last longer. If your tires are imbalanced, you might notice problems like unusual vibrations as you drive. If your front wheels need balancing, you'll likely feel vibrations in the steering wheel. Vibrations in the back seat tend to indicate a tire balancing issue with the rear tires.

How Can You Know When to Service Your Tires?

Your suspension can also suffer damage if your unbalanced tires are left unchecked. So, if you're looking to keep your car in tip-top shape and keep your drive as smooth as possible, tire balancing is a key maintenance item.

Another symptom of poor tire balance is excessive tire wear. No one likes having to replace their tires prematurely, so having your tires balanced can help you avoid problems that cause your tires to wear out faster than they should. If you notice unusual wear patterns on your tires, it could be a sign that your tires need to be balanced.

What Causes Tire Balancing Problems?

If you hit a curb or drive over a pothole, it could through some elements of your Subaru out of alignment. Even a slight alignment issue can be devastating for your tires, so it's always a good idea to have your car inspected and readjusted for tire balance, especially if you frequently travel along bumpy roads.
