The anticipated surge in vehicle production is poised to be a driving force behind the expansion of the tire balance market in the foreseeable future. Vehicles, serving as transportation mechanisms propelled by engines, require meticulous maintenance, including tire balancing - a crucial process ensuring uniform weight distribution within tire and wheel assemblies. This balancing procedure significantly curtails vibrations and instabilities in vehicles, particularly during varied driving speeds. Notably, data from the Federal Reserve System in August 2023 highlighted a substantial uptick in US motor vehicle production, escalating from 10.25 million units in Q1 2023 to 11.29 million units in Q2 2023. Therefore, the escalating vehicle production stands as a catalyst for propelling the growth of the tire balance market.

The growth of the tire balance market is anticipated to be driven by the increasing production of tires. Tire production involves the manufacturing of pneumatic tires used in a variety of vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses, and airplanes, and encompasses several stages, from sourcing raw materials to the final finishing of tires. As tire production rises, the demand for tire balancing services also increases due to the strong correlation between the tire balance industry and the automobile manufacturing sector, alongside the growing maintenance needs of car owners and an emphasis on ride comfort and safety. For example, in August 2024, The European Tyre and Rubber Manufacturers’ Association (ETRMA), a Belgium-based organization, reported that low-cost PCLT tires from China have significantly increased their market share, climbing from 59% of unit imports to 71.2% in 2023. Additionally, imports from China surged by over 10 million units in both 2022 and 2023, exceeding 40 million units by the end of 2023. Therefore, the rising tire production is fueling the growth of the tire balance market.

Key players in the tire balance market are directing their efforts toward the development of automated and digital balancing solutions, notably exemplified by the introduction of 2-hit wheel balancers, aimed at augmenting performance, minimizing downtime, and expanding their customer base across diverse market segments. The 2-hit wheel balancer is meticulously designed to rectify imbalances in weight within vehicle wheels, ensuring a smoother and safer driving experience by detecting and correcting discrepancies. For instance, in November 2022, CEMB USA, a provider of wheel service equipment and tire machines in the United States, unveiled a new 2-hit wheel balancer explicitly tailored to streamline wheel balancing procedures, particularly beneficial for novice mechanics. This innovative balancer employs a two-hit technique to verify wheel measurements on the tire before relaying the data to the wheel balancer. Noteworthy features include laser matching, open plane balancing (OPB), LA sonar, and ALU-S balancing mode, enhancing precision. Additionally, the 2-hit system utilizes a line laser and laser spotter to indicate the ideal wheel placement for achieving optimal vehicle balance.

In January 2023, Sun Auto Tire & Service Inc., an automotive repair, maintenance, and tire service provider based in the United States, successfully completed the acquisition of Tire Outlet Holdings Inc. The financial specifics of this acquisition remain undisclosed. This strategic move by Sun Auto Tire & Service Inc. is aimed at synergizing with Tire Outlet Holdings Inc.'s corporate ethos and strategic goals, positioning the amalgamated entity optimally for continuous growth and achievement. Tire Outlet Holdings, Inc., a company based in the US, specializes in automotive wheel and tire balancing services, thus aligning well with the overarching objectives and operational focus of Sun Auto Tire & Service Inc.

Tire balance involves equalizing the weight distribution of a vehicle's tires and wheels to minimize vibrations, ensuring a smooth and safe driving experience. This process is crucial for preventing uneven tire wear and optimizing overall vehicle performance.

The primary types of tire balance include clip-on and adhesive methods. The clip-on type involves attaching weights to the rim of a vehicle's wheel using clips. Clip-on tire balance weights are employed to fine-tune the balance of vehicle wheels, reducing vibrations and enhancing driving comfort. Tires are balanced through methods such as static balancing and dynamic balancing in various applications, including passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, and motorcycles. End-users of tire balance services include automotive service providers, fleet operators, and individual vehicle owners.
