FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions

Yes. During Summerside winters, heavy wet snow packed inside the inner barrel of wheel rims acts as an uneven counterweight and causes severe shaking. Clearing out snow often restores balance before needing a shop visit.
The wheel assembly is mounted on a high-speed computerized balancer that spins the tire to measure static and dynamic runout, pinpointing exact locations for clip-on or adhesive zinc counterweights.
Balancing all four wheels takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
