What Causes ExcessiveWheel Vibration?
Wheels Out Of Balance
Static wheel balancing uses a single weight plane and only addresses "up-and-down" imbalance. This is simply not adequate for today's vibration sensitive vehicles.Static wheel balance measures only "up and down." Dynamic wheel balancing uses two weight planes. This eliminates "up-and-down" and "side-to-side" imbalance. Dynamic, two plane wheel balance should always be requested, even on custom wheels when hidden weights are required.
Dynamic wheel balance also measures from "side to side."

Tire Pressureand Wheel Alignment
Improper tire pressure and/or misalignment causes irregular tire wear which creates and amplifies imbalance, resulting in wheel vibration. Alignment can be adjusted and wheels serviced to reduce or stop the vibration. Ask your technician.
Steering and Suspension Components
Steering and suspension components need periodic inspection. They can eventually wear out resulting in wheel vibration. Excessive wheel vibration from other causes can also shorten steering and suspension component life.
How Wheel Force Variation is Corrected
- Wheel to axle mounting error
- Brake component wear or failure
- Drive train or engine component wear or failure
- Vehicle component characteristics
A knowledgeable technician with proper training and equipment can diagnose these problems. But, the only way to rule out all wheel-related vibration is with the Hunter GSP9700 Vibration Control System.
We Solve Vibration and Tire PullProblems Other Shops Can't.
Because we use the GSP9700 Vibration Control System. It extends far beyond the traditional functions of a wheel balancer. It not only solves wheel balance problems, but also “road tests” the tire/wheel assembly to eliminate virtually every variable causing vibration in relation to the tire and rim.
