2. Tire rotation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_rotation

   Tire rotation. Tire rotation is the practice of moving the wheels and tires of an automobile from one position to another, to ensure even tire wear. Even tire wear extends the useful life of a set of tires, but the value of this is disputed.

3. Tire balance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_balance

   Physics of tire imbalance. Static balance requires the wheel center of mass to be located on its axis of rotation, usually at the center of the axle on which it is mounted. Static balance can be measured by a static balancing machine where the tire is placed on a vertical, non-rotating spindle.

4. Tire maintenance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_maintenance

   Tire maintenance. Inspection and maintenance of tires is about inspecting for wear and damage on tires so that adjustments or measures can be made to take better care of the tires so that they last longer, or to detect or predict if repairs or replacement of the tires becomes necessary. Tire maintenance for motor vehicles is based on several ...

5. Balancing of rotating masses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balancing_of_rotating_masses

   The balancing of rotating bodies is important to avoid vibration. In heavy industrial machines such as gas turbines and electric generators, vibration can cause catastrophic failure, as well as noise and discomfort. In the case of a narrow wheel, balancing simply involves moving the center of gravity to the centre of rotation

6. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

   Given a perfect tire, running on a perfectly smooth roadway, the force exerted between the car and the tire will be constant. However, a normally manufactured tire running on a perfectly smooth roadway will exert a varying force into the vehicle that will repeat every rotation of the tire. This variation is the source of various ride disturbances.

7. Wheel alignment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_alignment

   Wheel alignment, which is sometimes referred to as breaking or tracking, is part of standard automobile maintenance that consists of adjusting the angles of wheels to the car manufacturer specifications. [ 1] The purpose of these adjustments is to reduce tire wear and to ensure that vehicle travel is straight and true (without "pulling" to one ...
