Tire Balancing
A tire that is out of balance may affect handling and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai were balanced before the car was delivered but may need balancing again during the years you own the car.
Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it should be rebalanced before being reinstalled on the car.
