Alexey Revin, a specialist from "Za Rulem," emphasizes:
– If you drove a short distance on winter tires last season and did not notice any vibrations, you can avoid additional costs for balancing. However, in practice, it is important to closely monitor the behavior of the vehicle. If the steering wheel does not shake, then balancing is not required. Vibrations are felt less on the rear wheels, but they are also less prone to issues. In any case, if there is a serious imbalance, you will feel it.
For those who change their wheels themselves twice a year, there is a useful tip. After installing the wheels, drive for a few days. During this time, the tires will be able to eliminate any deformations that occurred during storage. If no vibrations arise at different speeds, then balancing is not necessary.
