Title: Importance of Wheel Alignment and Tire Balancing


1
Importance of Wheel Alignment and Tire Balancing
2
Wheel Alignment increases the life of new
tires. During alignment, steering and suspension
gets adjusted to make sure that the tires don't
wear out in the long run.
3
Three types of wheel alignment angles
are, 1.Camber 2.Toe 3.Caster
4
The camber angle measures
whether the top of the tire is
tilting outward or inward due to worn
ball joints or
severely worn out wheel bearings.
The toe angle affects the car's tires
and steering wheel. If
the angle is in or out too far, your tires will
begin to wear out quickly
and the steering wheel will look crooked.
The caster angle is what is
responsible for the steering wheel
returning to its original position when
you make a turn.

Tire balancing
need to be done for new tires.
This process is performed to
ensure that all the tires
balance with wheel weights to
facilitate smooth
rolling of the tire.
When there's an imbalance, the steering
wheel will
rock back and forth as you drive especially when
you reach a
certain speed.
7
For tire
balancing, technicians mount it on a rim and
use a machine
that is designed to spin the tires and
check the
location of imbalance and how severe it is.
Once the problem is
fixed, the technician will spin the
tires again using the
machine to ensure the tires are
properly balanced.
8
Tire imbalance can
occur when the rubber that is used
in making it wears off
overtime. That is
why it is important to check your tires for
imbalance
every 6 months and ensure they are
rebalanced.
Tire imbalance can cause severe accidents
especially
when the car is driven at fast.
