how important is it to have your wheels/tires balanced?

and what happens if you don't get them rebalanced when they need to.

You get 45,000 miles on your tires and void your 80,000 mile treadwear warranty. (exaggeration)

Dad didnt do alignments, balances, or rotation for a year. Learned that lesson the hard way.

Lets put it this way: Important enough.

more wear and tear on suspension components as well...aaah...the pounding of the bassaball tires ...some vehicles on the highway you can actually see that dribblin' action ..

thanks looks like I'm gonna have to get them rebalanced. 24.95 seems steep for just adding lead tape to it.

Doesn't it also affect the steering?
