What does that really mean?
We hear the term all the time, but what does it mean to mount and
balance? It might be a little easier to
understand if you were a gymnast! The
mounting part seems pretty simple, but the balancing is a bit more
complicated. And just like the
proverbial chicken and the egg…you can’t have one without the other.
A wheel is considered to be in balance when the center of
gravity is identical to the axis of rotation – in other words, when the mass of
the wheel and the tire are evenly distributed around the axle, so there’s
absolutely no vibration when the tire spins.
Our installers use special equipment to analyze the tires and wheels and
find any heavy spots that could cause them to vibrate when spinning.
It is all about attention to detail. That is why we hope you will trust us to
provide not only the tires themselves, but the important parts of mounting and
balancing as well. We are the A-Team…a
team of auto mechanics at Able Auto Service located at 837 Osage Ave in Kansas
City, KS. Make an appointment for tire
mounting and balancing by calling (913) 321-1030.
