Unbalanced wheels cause annoying vibrations, uneven tyre wear, and unnecessary strain on your suspension. At LBM, we use precision wheel balancing equipment to ensure your wheels spin true at any speed. Whether you’ve just fitted new tyres or noticed a shake in your steering wheel, our computerised balancing service corrects weight distribution issues to give you a smoother, safer ride and help your tyres last longer.
Stop steering wheel vibrations and cabin shake for a more comfortable drive on any road.
Even weight distribution prevents uneven tread wear, saving you money on premature tyre replacements.
Reduce strain on shocks, struts and steering components to avoid costly repairs down the track.
State-of-the-art dynamic balancing technology detects even the smallest weight imbalances.
Get the facts about wheel balancing — why it matters, when you need it, and how it keeps your vehicle running smoothly.
We mount each wheel on our computerised balancer to detect heavy spots, then attach precise counterweights to achieve perfect balance. We also inspect your tyres for damage, check valve stems, and adjust air pressure to manufacturer specifications.
If you feel vibrations through the steering wheel (usually noticeable between 60–100 km/h), notice uneven tyre wear patterns, or hear unusual tyre noise, your wheels likely need rebalancing. It's also essential after fitting new tyres or repairing a puncture.
We recommend balancing every time you rotate your tyres (every 10,000 km), when fitting new tyres, or immediately if you notice vibrations. Regular balancing with your service schedule keeps your ride smooth and your suspension happy.
A standard balance takes about 30–45 minutes for all four wheels, depending on your vehicle and whether any corrective weights need repositioning. It's quick, affordable insurance against premature tyre wear and suspension damage.
Wheel balancing corrects weight distribution around the wheel to stop vibrations, while wheel alignment adjusts the angles of your wheels to ensure they're pointing straight and true. They're different services, but we often recommend doing both together for optimal handling and maximum tyre longevity.
