TIRES/WHEELS - SERVICE INFORMATION
For dynamic balancing, the balancing equipment is
designed to locate the amount of weight (2) to be
applied to both the inner and outer rim flange.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - MATCH MOUNTING
Tires and wheels are not match mounted at the factory. Match mounting is a technique used to reduce runout in the
wheel/tire assembly. This means that the high spot of the tire is aligned with the low spot on the wheel rim. The high
spot on the tire is marked with a paint mark or a bright colored adhesive label on the outboard sidewall. The low
spot on the rim is identified with a label on the outside of the rim and a dot on the inside of the rim. If the outside
label has been removed the tire will have to be removed to locate the dot on the inside of the rim.
Before dismounting a tire from its wheel, a reference mark should be placed on the tire at the valve stem location.
This reference will ensure that it is remounted in the original position on the wheel.
1. Use a dial indicator to locate the high spot of the
tire on the center tread rib. Record the indicator
reading and mark the high spot on the tire.
