Many tires simply aren't round or Balance poorly
That's right, you might think this is a given with a new set of tires however it's
a fairly common problem. It's not just their unloaded 'roundness' that can be
incorrect, they must also turn true with the weight of a vehicle on a road. This
condition is called radial runout and due to design changes in vehicles and tires
this condition has become more of a problem over the years. Several vehicle
manufacturers are now requiring their dealerships to purchase a special and
rather expensive tire balancer that also tests for radial runout. There is very
little if anything that can be done to correct for radial runout except replace the
tires. HQ Automotive has a simpler solution. Sell a set of tires that are round
to begin with, Hankook tires. Hankook tires are more consistently well
balanced then any other tire I've ever personally experienced. If the vehicle
has a good set of well balanced wheels it's not uncommon to use 3oz's or less
to balance a complete set of 4 Hankook 725 Mileage Plus tires. This may not
mean much to you but take it from someone that balances a lot of tires, this is
simply unheard of with any other brand tire I've tried. The record so far is
1.75oz total on a set of four tires. 1.75oz would be a reasonable amount of
weight to use on a single tire from other brand tires.
