Wheel balancing – what is it and why is it necessary?

Wheel imbalance is a problem faced by a happy majority of drivers. But what exactly are the reasons, signals and about the importance of the balancing procedure, unfortunately, the minority knows. After all, this balancing procedure is especially necessary for a comfortable and safe ride at any time of the year. We will talk about all this and even more below. Wheel balancing In order to minimize the imbalance of the wheels, disc, hub and suspension elements, a balancing procedure is carried out. It consists in distributing the mass of the tire around the center of rotation. The main signs of imbalance: decrease in maneuverability; strange noise; vibration is observed in the steering wheel; twitching of the body at high speed; tread demolition; at a speed of more than 60 km / h, the beating of the steering wheel is felt; uncomfortable ride. Types of Wheel Imbalance Dynamic Most common with wide tires. The main factor in the malfunction is the discrepancy between the axis of inertia and rotation. How to recognize? The steering wheel rattles and beats on the hands, and the car itself throws to the sides at a speed of more than 40 km / h. Static With a static imbalance, the uneven distribution of mass along the axis of rotation is expressed. How to recognize? It is impossible to catch the steering wheel, the car jumps regardless of speed. With such a violation, the suspension becomes quickly unusable. Important! The most common type of wheel imbalance is combined. So they are rarely found separately. The most common causes of imbalance are: tire wear; difference in the width of the side walls; the previous tire repair was of poor quality; disk deformation; The wheel itself is defective. Wheel balancing: under what circumstances is it necessary? beating of the wheel on the curb; tire change; the car fell into a hole; availability of mileage from 5000 to 10000 km; wheel repair.

Collapse convergence: what is it, how and why is it done

What is wheel alignment The process of convergence-collapse involves the adjustment of the wheels of a car in relation to the body in two phases: collapse and convergence. The safe handling of the machine depends entirely on how the wheels are set up correctly. The rapid depreciation of rubber and / or the complication of corner entry are just a trifle of an unprofessional wheel alignment repair. First, let’s explain the basic terminology. Convergence – the position of the azimuth of the wheels of one axle to each other. Convergence exists both positively and negatively. If the wheel is placed inside the front side, then it is positive, and if it is placed outside, then it is negative. As a rule, each of the two options is common. For cars on the rear drive – positive, on the front – negative. Camber – the discrepancy between the azimuth of the wheels in relation to the symbolic line vertically or the surface of the track. The collapse can be: positive – the slope of the upper side outward; neutral – the same distance between both the lower and upper parts of the wheels on the same axle; negative – the slope of the upper side inward. What affects the collapse of convergence In the case of a uniform setting of the angles of convergence of the wheels: the adhesion force of the wheels with the road increases; the wear of the tire protector is minimized; improves the stability of the car when driving. How often do you need to align a car It is equally necessary to make adjustments and keep them pumped up and safe and sound. Unfortunately, motorists give too little attention to wheel alignment, which is a common mistake. With an incorrect wheel alignment, a strip of troubles may appear, such as: reduced maneuverability and controllability of the car; uncomfortable driving; tires wear out faster; through an increase in load, the life of the suspension elements decreases; more fuel is consumed. The process of adjusting the alignment should be done once a year or with a run of 20-30 thousand km. How is camber adjusted? First you need to make sure that both front wheels are balanced and that the running car is functioning properly and reliably. This phase occurs before the alignment adjustment. Following the restoration or change of the required nodes, the process must be reproduced again. The wheel alignment procedure of MB Master will be performed easily and reliably! We would like to remind you that we cooperate with both individuals and legal entities! And we also have a generator with which we work without stopping! We give a guarantee for our work!
