Jiffy Lube Tire Facts Tire Balancing An important part of tire maintenance is tire balancing. Tire Balance Explained:... Tire balancing compensates for the weight of the tire and wheel assembly after the tire is mounted. A wheel is out of balance when one area is heavier or lighter than the rest. The result? Bouncing or wobbling, which can decrease treadwear, increase vibration and cause stress on your vehicle. The cure? Correction weights are added to counterbalance the tires. When to Balance your tires: A tire is replaced A balance weight is moved or removed You purchase new tires How Wheels are Balanced: To balance a wheel, Tires Now at Jiffy Lube uses a computerized balancing machine to determine where the heavy spots are. Weights are then attached to the exterior or interior of the wheel to counteract centrifugal forces acting on the heavy areas when the wheel is turning. This eliminates vertical bouncing and side-to-side wobble. Tires Now at Jiffy Lube can help if you need your tires balanced. If you have questions about balancing the wheels on your vehicle why not give Tires Now at Jiffy Lube a call (519-753-0891) or stop in to our location at 84 King George Rd. Brantford.

It's the time to changeover from your winter to your all season tires. The time to changeover is when we have a steady temperature of around 7 Celsius. Believe it or not we are getting closer.Rubber compounds are tuned for the ambient temperatures the tires are designed to encounter. Summer tires are best for warm conditions and winter/snow tires are best for cold. And while an all-season tire's name suggests year-round capabilities, they often prove to be a Jack-of-all-trade...s, master of none.Running typical all-season tires continuously means they will wear out in about three years of use and may need to be replaced before starting the third winter. While dedicated winter tires are tuned to provide the best possible traction when road conditions are at their slipperiest, some drivers believe using them means having to buy an extra set of tires. However the point they often overlook is that the tires they use during spring, summer and fall don't experience any wear when they are stored during winter, which means those tires will be able to deliver more summers of service. Alternating winter/snow tires seasonally extends the years of service received from both sets of tires. Our experience has taught us that alternating between two sets of tires that have been designed for the driving conditions (summer's hot, dry and wet roads vs. winter's cold, slush, snow and ice) means having the best tires to overcome driving challenges all year round, and helps extend the combined years of service drivers get from both sets. Tires Now at Jiffy Lube can help if you need a seasonal tire changeover.
