I had a flat 3 days ago, so I put the spare on and took the flat to discount tire. They fixed it quickly and had my car ready in 15 min. But now the steering wheel shakes a bit when I go faster than 55 mph. Would they charge me to get the tire balanced? My money goes away fast these days, so I would like to hear from anyone else who's had this experience before I take my car over there. Thanks :)|||First, check to make sure the lug nuts are tight.
They will charge you but they should have done it in the first place unless you specifically
told them to do it as cheap as possible.
If they did charge you as well for the balance, just ask them to double-check their work because
the car now shimmy's at 55.
Fifteen minutes was very fast and sounds like great service, you never mentioned the price.
Hope this helps a bit.|||if it was plugged it wouldn't cause that problem if patched yes,you must pay for balancing, next occurance with patching ,mark the wheel weight position on the tire with grease pencil ,have the mechanic to reposition the same eliminating the need to re balance.|||If they took the tire off the rim to fix it you need to tell them that the tire is now out of balance and they need to balance it, tell them you didn't have the problem before they took the tire off the rim, if you tell them this they should balance it for free.|||well did u pay for a balance when they fixed the flat?? sometimes its included in the flat repair price but if not then u need to go and pay them to balance it.....if it was included they shud do it for free if its within a few days(less than 5)|||You pay for any work. It might only cost $10-$15 for balancing, unless they're greedy. They might even do it free if they recognize you and admit they should have done this when they fixed the flat.
