Find Mount and Balance

Mount and Balance Add To Cart

We use Hunter Equipment Road Force balancing and scratchless mounting for all wheel and tire packages.  The GSP9700 measures radial and lateral tire forces and provides instructions for solving ride and handling problems such as tire pull and wheel vibration that balancers and wheel aligner cannot fix.

Hunter's GSP9700 is endorsed and recommended by vehicle manufacturers and proven by thousands of repair facilities worldwide as the industry standard.

 

Smooth-rolling Rims and Tires can be the difference between having a vibration-free driving experience or a bumpy one. If the tire and wheel tolerances are not examined, corrected, or are allowed to stack up rather than cancel out each other, the possibility of a balance or road force induced ride vibration exists. Because of this, Wheel and Tire Packages will not ship unless they're Hunter-Balanced and Road Force® approved.

 

Tires are made up of internal beads, body plies and belts that are encased in rubber, assembled and cured. Alloy wheels are cast, cooled and machined. And even though they both are built to tight tolerances, there is bound to be some unavoidable weight imbalances during the manufacturing process.

When you consider that a typical passenger car tire mounted on an alloy wheel weighs about 40 pounds, it's amazing that the total amount of imbalance is typically no more than three to four ounces, or about one-half of one percent. So, if the tire and wheel combination isn't balanced with add-on weights, being off even an ounce or two can cause vibration at highway speeds. Heavier tire and wheel combinations, especially those used on light trucks, require more weights to maintain the same low percentage of imbalance.

In order to assure customer satisfaction, Tire & Wheel Packages purchased are tested before shipment at no additional charge to our consumers using the Hunter Engineering GSP9700 Vibration Control System to evaluate and eliminate nearly all possible wheel and tire related vibration causes.
