We come to you to balance wheels, reduce vibration and help your tyres wear more evenly.
We check for imbalance, balance the wheel and tyre assembly and flag any related problems we find.
We measure camber, toe and caster against your vehicle’s manufacturer settings to see how far they have drifted.
We balance the wheel and tyre assembly at your location, correcting uneven weight so it spins smoothly.
If new tyres are fitted, the team can balance your wheels so the replacement runs smoothly from the first mile.
If balancing will not solve the problem, we flag tyre damage, wheel damage or alignment faults, and suggest the right repair solution.
Describe the vibration, when you feel it and your vehicle details, so we can plan the visit.
We inspect each wheel and tyre for damage, uneven wear and debris before any balancing begins.
Balancing equipment spins the wheel to find exactly where the weight is uneven and by how much.
Small weights are added opposite the heavy spot, then the wheel is refitted and checked.
Vibration is the classic clue, and it usually appears at certain speeds and fades at others. Is your car struggling with wheel problems? Watch out for these signs:
Steering wheel shake at certain speeds
Vibration felt through the seat or floor
Uneven or patchy tyre wear
Vibration that started after new tyres or a tyre repair
Premature wear on steering and suspension parts, which imbalance can cause over time
No. Wheel balancing evens out the weight of the wheel and tyre so it spins smoothly, while wheel alignment sets the angles of the wheels so the car tracks straight. Balancing cures vibration, and alignment cures pulling and uneven wear.
Wheel balancing in the UK typically costs around £5 to £15+ per wheel or roughly £20 to £60+ for a full set of four wheels. 888 confirms the price for your vehicle, including any call-out charge, before booking.
The main signs are steering wheel or seat vibration at certain speeds, uneven tyre wear and vibration after a new tyre or repair. If the car also pulls to one side, alignment may be involved as well.
Wheels should be balanced every 5,000 to 15,000 miles. We suggest checking your wheels whenever a tyre is fitted or repaired, and checking whenever vibration appears.
Balancing all four wheels usually takes around 30 – 45 minutes. Damaged wheels or tyres, or difficult access, can take longer.
Often, yes. Imbalance in the front wheels is a common cause of steering wheel shake. If the vibration continues after balancing, we check for tyre damage, bent wheels and worn suspension parts.
Yes. Wheels should be rebalanced after a mobile tyre repair or a new tyre is fitted, because either one changes how weight is spread around the wheel.
