Is dealer best place for alignment and balancing?


Recommended Posts

My '03 (with 18" Dunlops on Turbo Wheels) has been vibrating at approximately 75 - 80 mph, I think the car needs to be speed balanced and aligned, is the dealership the best place to get this done? Any ideas?

do a google search for hunter 9700, this machine is considered the best for balancing

newer models have something called "road force balancing" that is supposed to be even better than the standard 9700

the hunter website has a search function to find the shop nearest you

Steve,

Thanks for the info. I stumbled across a place that has that particular machine here in Miami, do you know if that balancing is better than the so called "speed balancing"? I guess my question should be what is the difference between regular balancing and speed balancing? (This may be a stupid question).

Thanks,

Raul
