Smooth, Vibration Free Driving

Wheel balancing ensures the weight of your tyres and wheels is distributed evenly around the axle. If a wheel becomes unbalanced, it can cause vibrations and accelerate tyre wear.


At O’Neill’s Tyres, we use modern balancing equipment to identify and correct imbalances quickly and accurately.


Symptoms of Unbalanced Wheels


Common signs include:


  • Steering wheel vibration
  • Vibration at highway speeds
  • Uneven tyre wear
  • Increased road noise
  • Reduced ride comfort


Balancing your wheels restores smooth driving and protects suspension components.
