Wheel alignment and wheel balancing are different service but are both very important part of tyre maintenance. It is needed to enhance the life and performance of your tires.

Wheel alignment sometimes called as ‘’front end alignment”, is the process in which the technician will adjust the angle of your car’s wheel to the position according to the manufacturer’s recommended specification. The purpose of this adjustment is to reduce tyre wear and keep your steering wheel and tyres in the straight position.

Wheel balancing is done by taking the wheel off the vehicle and placing it on a wheel balancing machine. The technician will use a calibrated spin balancer and usually test both static (none moving) and dynamic (moving) wheel balance. The procedure usually done once every 5-6,000 miles or every 6 months and during when a new tire gets fitted it must be rebalanced. If you feel vibration in the steering wheel, the floorboard or your seat it is the time that may need a tyre balancing done.

There is no exact time to change your tyre. Your car performance depends on your tyre so you have to be watchful of the condition of your tyre for your own safety. There are many signs to determine that you need a new tyre. Keep an eye check on the thread if the tyre is visibly worn out, have cracks on the sidewall then it’s time to bring them to the repair shop and change as soon as possible. With everyday used, your tyre become flatter overtime and it will reduce control and can be dangerous on the road. It is recommended to change your tyre once they reach to 3mm in depth to stay safe. Another signs to consider that the tyre needs to be replaced is the unusual vibration or sound you hear while driving, you will probably know the changes if there is an excessive vibration or hearing a buzz then you decide to change your tyre.

As per UAE law it is required to change your tyre once every 5 years from the date of manufacture even if they appear to be in a usable condition and haven’t been worn out. But as long as you were able to used tyre within 5 years from the date of production it's okay to buy with any date of manufacture. However the tyre can last longer depending on proper maintenance, you’re driving habit and the weather condition.

1. Tire size
The most important thing that you have to identify before buying a tyre is your tyre size. Your tyre size information is in the owner manual or posted on the driver’s side doorjamb. If you also check your current tyre fitted on your car you will find out your tyre size marked on the side wall.

2. Weather condition
One factor to consider is the weather condition; the type of tyre you choose will depend on the climate you live in. Like here in UAE, although rain are rarely seen in most part of the region but still you might want getting tyre that provides good performance in wet and dry conditions. It is because season changes from hot to cold. During winter as the temperature fall down it will affect the tire pressure and it will lead to traction consequences. Summer tyre and all season tyres are just two of a kind that you will probably be contemplating for when choosing, however you must choose the right one that you needed the most.

3. Driving habit
Another one is your driving habit; consider the roads your travels normally take you. Let say you’re driving for mainly roads and highway for maximum safety; look for tyres that provide best and more reliable on breaking distance on both dry & wet roads. Each tyre has an individual grading for its grip so you might want to select the top of the scale Traction A rating. If you are always off to a long drive, you might consider choosing tyre that offer comfort both in terms of vibration and noise level, you can choose 68dB below as the quietest.

4. Manufacturer’s recommendation
Be sure to buy tyre that are appropriate based on your manufacturer’s recommended size, speed rating, load capacity and any important specifications such as proper tyre maintenance.

The rolling resistance and fuel consumption will increase.

Handling performance and stability will decrease.

Tyre could over heat or blow out and may cause road accidents.

Tyre may cause obviously rough even on tiny uneven road and very at risk to injury.

Over inflated tyres will easily wear out and might last half the life they normally would.

It will cause lost of traction because less of the tire touches the ground. As a result your car will bounce on the road and lost control.

It is a big deal that’s why it is very important to follow the tyre recommended inflation pressure. If your tyre is improperly inflated this might cause a big problem on your car performance and may cause breakdown. An over inflated tyres can lose traction and can be very prone to damage. An under inflated tyre don’t respond quickly so you lose some of the routine and your safety is at risk. It is impossible to tell if the tyre is over-inflated or under-inflated by simply looking on it, have it check in the tyre shop to adjust air pressure if necessary as indicated on the owner’s manual or on the tire itself.

Normally the tyre pressure should be check at least once a month, or before and after you go on a long drive. The best time to do it is when the tires are cold or rested most probably in the morning before you off to the drive way.
