is tire rotate and balance a common service at auto repair shops?

Posted by admin on May 31, 2010

in other words, do people commonly come into auto shops and get a tire rotate and balance?

some independent mechanics don’t have tire balancers but they can rotate your tires for you.

    They can take them there, but I think most people would use a Tire shop, which is set up to do the rotation and balancing.

    I do it all the time. I work at a general service shop, not a "tire store"

    Most scheduled maintenance intervals suggest tire rotations every other oil change and the balance every 15K miles. I strongly agree with the rotation but the balance is up to you…
