Tru-Balance Truck Wheel Centering Products' patented line is designed to eliminate the problem of tire vibration and erratic tire wear. With hub-piloted wheels, gravity causes the weight of the wheel to rest on the upper pilots, which creates a gap at the bottom pilots. Even the smallest of gaps results in an egg-shaped motion upon rotation. This uneven motion creates tire vibration. Tru-Balance products bypass the hub pilots and center the wheel to the wheel studs. This creates the true center of the wheel and eliminates the uneven gap.

Benefits of these products include:

  • Reduces rolling resistance of tires
  • Increases fuel mileage and tire life
  • Decreases tire vibration and erratic tire wear
  • Cuts rebalancing costs
  • Decreases tire maintenance
  • Reduces “wheel off” condition and tire cupping
