But the truth is that no tires are good when driving at very high speeds, even tiny faults feel like bigger defects. That’s why balanced tires are very necessary for a comfortable ride. Tires are balanced when the weight is distributed all around the tires. It is important to have well-balanced tires for the best performance and safety.

 

5 Symptoms of Tires Out of Balance:
