Balancing/optimising wheels: Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2005 Porsche 911, 2004 Porsche 911, 2003 Porsche 911, 2002 Porsche 911, and 2001 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The entire process is subdivided into four operations.

  1. Mounting the tyre on the rim.
  2. Stationary balancing of the wheel (eliminating the static and dynamic imbalance) with optimisation of the rolling smoothness.
  3. Mounting the wheel on the vehicle.
  4. Electronic fine balancing (static balancing) of the wheel on the vehicle after stationary balancing. Required only in exceptional cases.
