Thread: Quick tire rotation question

I have a quick question about rotating tires, but after you rotate your tires do you
need to get them balanced ? Because if not I'm just going to rotate them at
home instead of taking it to the shop.

Thanks.

Nope, rotate away at home.

balance if you have a shimmy or vibration, otherwise just do it at home

some tires' grip are directional, so take a look for that when you change them, I put my winter tires on backwards and wondered why I wasn't gripping as well as I used to...d'oh!

If the tires were spin balanced on the car (some places still do this), then they must be rebalanced. If you are going to a place that does this, it is best to find a different shop.

Well they we're balanced on a machine that does each wheel separately.
So I'm pretty sure I'm in the clear with that one.
