Tyre Balancing

Tyre balancing is a tune-up for your tyres. It distributes the weight around the entire circumference of the unit. Your tyres may be out of balance if the tread wears quickly, you are getting poor fuel economy, there is vibration in the steering wheel, the floorboard or the seat that gets worse the faster you go.

When all areas of the wheel-tire unit are as equal in weight as possible, the tyre will roll smoothly. This helps it wear evenly, for the longest life. Balancing also contributes to ride comfort. Imbalanced tyres will wobble which causes vibration. If a front tyre isn’t properly balanced, you’ll likely feel vibration in the steering wheel. If the problem is in the rear, the vibration will be noticeable in the seat or floor.

Imbalanced tyres are easily corrected but the work is precise. Bring your car into Mekas Automotive today and we will correct the problem

Most punctures are caused by sharp metal bits and pieces like small screws or nails. These items have a tendency to cause a puncture that is less than 5mm in diameter. A small hole like this in the tread of your tyre can easily be repaired.
