Troubleshooting
Tire feels unbalanced or causes vibrations
Ensure the tires have been properly balanced by a professional. Uneven wear can also cause vibrations; check tire pressure and consider rotation.
Premature or uneven tire wear
Check tire inflation levels, as incorrect pressure is a common cause. Also, ensure regular tire rotations are performed and have your vehicle's wheel alignment checked.
