SUBJECT:
WHEEL BALANCE ACCURACY
PURPOSE
This bulletin contains tips and procedures for achieving accurate wheel balance. Steering wheel vibration and/or body shake can result if any of these
procedures are not carefully observed.
1.
Wheels and tires must be properly mounted on a balancer in order to achieve correct balance. Centering the wheel on the shaft of the balancer is
essential for proper mounting.
2.
Off-the-car wheel balancers must be calibrated periodically to ensure good balancing results. An inaccurately calibrated balancer could cause
unnecessary replacement of tires, shocks, suspension components, or steering components.
