What effect can an imbalance of the wheel-and-tyre assembly produce?

Correct answer

Vibration in the steering wheel or vehicle.

It can cause vibration felt through the steering wheel or vehicle, especially at certain speeds, and contribute to uneven wear. Balancing compensates for uneven mass distribution in the rotating assembly; it differs from wheel alignment and does not guarantee geometrically perfect roundness. Vibration should be inspected because other causes are also possible.
