There are many parts in our vehicles that require regular maintenance so that they run efficiently. This includes oil changes, transmission flushes, and brake replacement. Another important part of your vehicle is your tires. That’s why it is important to get them rotated and balanced every 7,000 miles. Keeping your tires properly rotated and balanced will help ensure that they have a long life.
You might be wondering where you can get this service done. Lucky for you, we offer tire rotation and balance services at Nissan/INFINITI Guam right here in Tamuning, Guam. Keep reading for warning signs that your tires need to be rotated or balanced.
You will need to look out for three signs when determining if your tires are out of rotation. First, your tires will have uneven tread wear. You’ll notice that the tire will not have the same amount of wear on both sides. This is usually found more on the front tires. The second sign is vehicle vibration. If you feel your vehicle vibrating when you drive 45 mph or faster, this could be a sign to get your tires balanced. However, it could also be a sign of another problem. The third sign is pressure loss. If one tire is losing air pressure faster than the others, it may have too much pressure on it. It also good to check for punctures.

Many of the signs that your tires need to be balanced are the same as when you need to get them rotated. However, there are a few differences. Vibration will be felt in different areas of the car depending on whether a front or rear tire is out of balance. You will start feeling vibrations at higher speeds rather than at 45 mph. Unbalanced tires will also make a buzzing or humming sound that becomes louder with acceleration. It’s also recommended to get new tires balanced right away.
