If a car is running on the road for a longer time then there is a possibility of uneven distribution of weight on tyres. To fix this problem and make this weight distribution even is called tyre balancing or wheel balancing. If tyres are not balanced then it might be a possibility that the wheel loses grip at a particular unbalanced location of the wheel.
This imbalance can cause vibration, excessive tire wear, damage to the suspension and other damages to your car. This can also cause accidents on the road. To avoid such situations, It is necessary to balance the tyres after every 5,000 to 10,000 km. Tyre balancing is really necessary as it makes steady contact with the road surface.
When do my tyres need Wheel balancing?
Whenever tyres need balancing, then the car starts to show some hints. The most important indication is the vibration of the steering wheel at certain speeds approx. 50mph. You can also feel vibrations on the floor or seats. Apart from the vibration, the car also makes a buzzing or humming noise that is accompanied by vibration.
Advantages of wheel balancing:
1. Increase the durability of your wheel.
2. Improve road safety.
3. Save fuel and increase mileage.
4. Increase the efficiency of the wheel.
5. Save from vehicle’s suspension.
6. Make your ride smooth.
7. Control over vibration.
8. Stop noise pollution.
9. Fewer auto maintenance.
The bottom line is:
If you notice that your tyre is losing pressure, then check for the balancing of your tyres. It is necessary to focus on the indication of tyre imbalance to avoid incurring expensive tyre replacement costs. To balance the tyres of your car take the help of professional service. At Dial4tyre you get expert mechanics and technicians who can take care of car tyres by providing all the tyre-related solutions.

Tyres are a vital part of any vehicle, but there is no perfect answer for how much time does tyres last. It depends on many factors such as driving skills, roads, tyres maintenance and many other factors. Factors also affecting the life span of tyres are cuts, damages and punctures which leads to tyre replacement.
Recommendation for changing tyre is around 4-5 years or 50,000-60,000 kms even if it is highly maintained. Many other basics which are taken into consideration for changing of tyres are:
1. Tread Depth: if the tread depth in your tyres varies than it is sign for changing your tyres. As per CMVR (Central Motor Vehicle Rules) depth of tread should be 1.6mm.
2. Wear and Tear: Poor alignment or constant high speed may lead to wear and tear in tyres. Such uneven deteriorates the quality of rides and also make vehicles unstable during high speed. For this tyres should be checked on regular basis for the personal safety.
3. Road conditions: When car is drove thorough terrains, massive ruts or muddy roads it results in uneven tyre wear and tear which also results in cracked side walls. Regular checking by tyre expert should be done.
4. Driving Habits: Sudden application of brakes or acceleration can cause scrapping in the tyre. These may also cause unusual noise or vibration.
We recommend car users to have a regular inspection on tyres and take appropriate action to ensure road safety.
Some situations are unpredictable, just like inflated tyres, and you hate every single second of it, but thanks to the innovation indeed, "run-flat tyres" or "self-supporting tyres," which allow users to travel for some miles in the situation of flat tyres. Some cars have an inbuilt TPMS (tyre pressure monitoring system) which gives an advantage to the user and also signals in case of low air pressure and tyre blowouts. In this blog, we will discuss run-flat tyres and whether they are really worth installing.
What are run-flat tyres?
Run-flat tyres(RFTs) are specially designed tyres that allow the user to travel for some distance after a puncture has occurred, these tyres are made up of heat-resistant rubbers which support the weight of the vehicle and passengers during little or no air pressure situations.
The sidewalls of these tyres are comparatively thicker than conventional or regular tyres as they don’t rely on air pressure.
Can regular tyres be used with RFTs?
The answer to that will be yes but under certain situations or in a temporary situation as not all tyres are designed to give the same results.Before replacing the tyre one should read the user manual because without the knowledge about the tyre one can put him/her and others in danger.
Every tyre has its own specification and one should know it otherwise it will end up causing an imbalance in handling
In addition, if you are going to use conventional tyres, you have to make sure that the tyres you select meet the vehicle manufacturer's specifications for size, speed, load capacity, and inflation pressure.
Having RFTs has both pros and cons
First, we go through the pros
1. You may travel for a limited distance
During blowouts, it allows users to travel for a limited distance so that they don’t have to wait for a tow car and they can easily drive to the nearest garage.
2. Extra space in the trunk
As you don't have to put the spare part in the trunk, no jackhammers, nothing just an empty space.
3. Stability during blowouts
The vehicle will be in control as compared to the vehicles with regular tyres, and the user can easily and safely drive to a limited distance (depending on the road and tyre pressure).
4. Time-saving
Don’t need to stop in heavy traffic and get out of the car to change those dirty tyres, you can easily drive to the nearest garage.
Now let's look at the cons since everything has its downsides
1. No spare tyres
Using RFTs can pose a problem if one tyre loses its air pressure completely and you need to get somewhere urgently but do not have a spare and the tools.
2. Quite costly
There are certain conditions under which you can repair RFTs, otherwise, you'll have to buy a new pair of tyres since they are more expensive than conventional tyres.
3. Shelf life is shorter
Because of the design of the treads, RFTs have a shorter shelf life than regular tyres, and punctures prevent them from being recovered.
4. Finding a flat is difficult
It is hard to find flats in vehicles with RFTs due to the design of the tyres. Their sidewalls don't change and make it difficult for the user to tell whether they're low on air pressure or punctured.
