If a tire is unbalanced, the unbalanced dynamic forces causes the tire to run eccentrically. This eccentric movement causes reduced tire traction. The loss of traction results in a power loss, thus MPG is reduced. Additionally, unbalanced tires wear out faster. A tire that is out of balance can also impact your vehicle
Drive to a trusted tire shop and have them inspect the tires and wheels. Make sure they balance all 4 tires and check them for defects.
Definitely
Sure.ANS 2 - No, it actually isn't that safe. -Snow tires have terrible grip on dry roads and your braking will diminish on wet or dry compared to good summer tires. - -Why do you think they call therm SNOW tires .
unbalanced tires, chopped tires, or bad u joint on the drive shaft
unbalanced tires and or wheels
You will feel a vibration in the steering wheel
yes
Yes. Road conditions validate the type of tires needed for your vehicle but seasons dictate when a change is needed for snow tires or snow tires with studs.
vibrations are not bad for a car it vibrates every time you drive, but for safety i really think that with a flat spot on a tire it is not safe to drive on.
If in the snow with studded tyres, you are probably safe with about 30km/h (about 20mph).
Maybe a little less stability and comfort in riding, but it is sure hard on your tires.
I have seen this with bad or unbalanced tires.
