When your wheels are out of balance, they wobble a little. That makes the tires wear and vibrate. To correct this, your service technician at D&H Enterprises puts weights on your wheels to balance them out. If a front wheel is out of balance you’ll feel it in the steering wheel. If it’s a rear wheel you’ll feel it through your seat.

Front tires on a car wear out more quickly than the rear tires. That why rotating front and rear tires is important and allows them to all wear at about the same rate over the life of the tire.

Also, under-inflated tires wear excessively on the shoulder and may even overheat. Over-inflated tires wear to fast in the middle.
