Customers that visit Tire Works for the first time often have the same questions about basic services. They ask the professionals at Tire Works, “What is computerized balancing? What is wheel alignment? Does wheel alignment have to be performed whenever tires are replaced? What are the basic types of tires?”

In this article, Tire Works answers these questions and invites prospective customers to stop in and learn more about the services offered at Tire Works. Computerized wheel balancing, explains the team at Tire Works, is when the tire and wheel assembly is mounted on a balancing machine before it is reattached to a car. The balancing machine spins the wheel at high speeds, says Tire Works, and detects heavy spots in the tire or wheel that might cause it to wobble later.

The Tire Works experts also explain that minute imbalances are inherent in the materials and manufacturing processes of wheels and tires. As technology has improved, adds the team at Tire Works, tires are being produced with fewer inherent imbalance. But technology has also improved the automobiles, says Tire Works, and they are consequently more sensitive to even minor imbalances. Certified computerized tire balancing, notes Tire Works, has become the industry standard. All tires purchased at Tire Works are eligible for free balancing and tire rotation for the life of the tires and the Tire Works experts caution that driving on imbalanced tires can lead to flat spots and irregular wear that will shorten tire life.

To answer the second question, what is wheel alignment? Tire Works explains that wheel alignment is a series of adjustments and calibrations made to the suspension of an automobile. Sound wheel alignment, add the expert professionals of Tire Works, improves vehicle handling and mitigates tire wear. Tire Works also notes that poor alignment may lead to unsafe conditions at high speeds, during turns and safety maneuvers.

Tire Works further explains that changing tires does not affect the wheel alignment of a car. When tires are replaced, Tire Works inspects the old tires for signs of uneven wear caused by bad alignment. If there are signs of poor alignment, Tire Works will recommend a tire alignment service. Tire Works also informs consumers that good wheel alignment lengthens the life of the tires.

When customers shop for tires, continues Tire Works, they will eventually choose between four general types of passenger tires. Tire Works stocks Ultra High Performance tires, Touring tires, All-Season tires and Traction tires. Tire Works’ Ultra High Performance tires have excellent dry road traction, rigid sidewalls for stability and are resistant to wear under high temperatures. Touring tires have better wet weather traction, explains the staff at Tire Works, as well as longer tread life. Tire Works also offers All-Season tires that give the quietest ride, best wet weather traction and longest tread life. Traction tires are designed for specialized uses, says Tire Works, like winter use driving in mud and snow. Tire Works advises automobile owners that tire choice should based on individual driving needs and the type of car. The experts at Tire Works provide customers a full complement of products and services as well as a wealth of automotive knowledge. Ever committed to quality customer service, Tire Works endeavors to follow up with each sale to get the customer’s opinion of the service they have received at Tire Works.
