How often to balance tires?
There is no schedule for tire balancing; it is completely dependent on usage and need. For the averages, a tire can survive for its entire life without the need for balancing again; this average says you have never overloaded the tire, let it set too long without driving, caused the tire to spin (loose traction), skidded, etc. The smart way to deal with this is to purchase lifetime balancing, and return to the original place of purchase to have them rotate the tires, and check the balance at the same time (7,000 miles or so).
What is balancing and rotating a tire?
any tire if hanged free from it's middle point in it's geometric centre freely it will show that there is a side of it a little bit heavier sometimes not always even with a brand new tire ,to solve this uneven balance we have to put a counter balance in the opposite point to the heavier one ,this is a static balance. When you rotate the tire with a fixed speed the unbalance will cause the tire to be shaking so we have to put a counter weight opposite to the extra weight which causes the unbalance ( this is called dynamic balance and should be done using a balancing machine.

Car vibrates when you first reach 60mh after a while it goes smooth?
It sounds like you have a tire slightly out of balance. Driving heats up the wheel, changing the balance slightly. It is also possible that you have water in the tire, the result of condensation or airing the tire repeatedly. The evening out or smoothing of the drive is the result of the tire heating up and selfbalancing or the water in the tire spreading out evenly also balancing the tire. The solution is simple: take the tire in to be balanced. If there is water in it, they will find it and fix it. If the tire is just out of balance, that will be fixed as well. Any tire shop can do this.
