At 60 miles per hour, an
average size tire rotates
about 850 times per minute.
At this speed, slight variations
in balance, tire stiffness,
and roundness can
literally cause the tire to
slam into the ground 14
times per second. Today’s
vehicles are more sensitive
to this condition. Excessive
vibrations can lead to expensive
repairs to steering and
suspension components,
excessive tire wear and unsafe
conditions.
Cause of vibration:
Wheels Out of Balance:
Static
balancing uses a single
weight plane and only addresses
“up and down” vibrations.
Dynamic balancing
uses two weight planes and
addresses “up and down”
vibrations as well as “side to
side” vibrations. Dynamic
balancing should be used
whenever balancing tires.
Wheel Force Variation: A perfectly
balanced tire can still
vibrate due to Road Force
Variation. Most frequent
cause of force variation is
due to out of round rim,
uneven tire tread, or tire
stiffness.
Correction for Road
Force:
Match mounting a
stiff or high spot on the tire
with the low spot on the
rim will make the tire run
round. Sometimes the rim
may be too bent or the tire
can be defective. No two
tires are the same even
when new.
Wrong tire pressure and
improper alignment will
cause improper tire wear
which leads to vibration
problems.
Our GSP9700 Road Force
machine can solve your vibration
problems along with
our alignment giving you the
“new car feel”.
We are certified emission
inspectors and certified emission repair technicians. We offer OBDII

Maintenance Information:
|
The most important thing to keep from those costly vehicle
repairs is vehicle maintenance. You should follow the
recommended maintenance schedule set by the manufacturer.
This schedule can be found in your owner's manual. If our
customers do not have this information, we can provide it
for them. We have maintenance information on most late model
vehicles. |

Every 3000 miles or 3
months |
| Air Filter* |
Checked every 6000 miles,
replace if needed |
