usually, balancing and alignment free if change 4 tyres..
Yes if buy new tire, i wonder if its included if buy 2nd hand tire.

Last month i change 4pcs of the Pajero tires and yes allignment + ballancing is included but i just told the shop to do ballancing. IMHO, if the allignment is tip top dont gatal tangan to disturb the perfect harmony of tire and road interaction.

Guys, I had this problem for my car. When driving on uneven road, the steering feels it is pulled to right and left (depending on the road). Is it a time to do alignment (and balancing too, i know balancing dont cause this, but sekali jalan la), or absorber problem? Alignment done 1 year ago.
Front absorber never changed by previous owner, car come into Malaysia from Japan in 2015. The car is made in 2010. Rear absorber changed 6 months ago.


check balljoint, lower arm bush, tie rod/rack end and tie rod end

Balancing is always free, even if change 1 tyre. Alignment usually can negotiate if 4 tyres, but I sometime negotiate even change 2 tyres.....hahhahhahaha

same as bro gunnerzz said... last time the tyre shop everything is ok, need to change tyre only. maybe he wants to just let me spend money at his shop... of course la, coz its tyre shop... haha.
if its proven caused by other problems (lets say steering rack bush, since 2 members already have the same experience), i might postpone changing tyres, maybe for another 1 year coz my tyre only 3 yo now and i used on mostly during weekends only.

Seldom use the car, might as well use the tyres until compound harden. No need waste money to buy new tyres then park the car......lol
