Abstract
The mechanisms which cause shake on smooth roads and the procedures and equipment for removing it are reviewed. A critical comparison of various on- and off-the-car tire balancing methods is made. The effectiveness of tire grinding and trueing is reviewed with emphasis on the total system behavior. A statistical evaluation and analysis is presented of the potential errors contributed by off-the-car balancing and the vehicle itself, considering the imbalance vector components inherent in tire-rim assemblies and vehicle axles. The use of a liquid tire balancer is also investigated.Keywords
