Hyundai Elantra Forum The Hyundai Elantra Forum. Later models (96-up) of this 4-door share their Beta engines and chassis with the Hyundai Tiburon. Earlier Mistubishi-based Hyundai Elantras (92-95) are perfect candidates for the popular 4g63t motor swap, which turns the Hyundai Elantra into a real sleeper. These characteristics make the Hyundai Elantra a great car for those who want sports car performance with family car flexibility.

Default Balancing tires

Hey all I got new tires installed and had them balanced at the same time.



The guy at the shop only had to put wheel weights on 2 of the wheels is this normal?



He told me the two without weights were perfectly balanced without them.

Does the car shake when you drive it? There's your answer.

Some tires and wheels dont need balancing if they are brand new. If you feel any shaking or vibration, then definitely go back and have them look at it again.
