Introducing the Haweka Quick Plate for precision wheelbalancing.
At Bush Tyres we continually strive to offer our customersthe best ways to improve our service and standards, no matter how small thechanges and implementations maybe. It’s for these reasons we have introducedthe Haweka Quick Plate to optimise balancing car wheels.
When balancing a wheel and tyre it’s best to locate the wheel on the balancer in the same way it is fitted on the vehicle. The Haweka QuickPlate enables us to do this by locating the wheel via the wheels stud holes. Mounting the wheel in this way applies equal pressure to the stud holes aswell as locating the wheel on the spigot correctly, therefor optimising the centring of the wheel onthe balancer by mimicking the way the wheel is fitted to the car.
As an added bonus, there is no chance of the face of the wheel beingmarked/damaged, unlike with some conventional methods of wheel balancing where a ‘pressurecup’ attachment is used to push against the face of the wheel to clamp the wheel to the balancer.
We currently have the Hawke Quick Plate at our Pirelli Performance Centres in Horncastle, Spalding and Beverley.
For more information or to have your wheel balanced please give them a call.
Christmas has arrived early in our Spalding Branch when a visit from two cars which are more than capable of helping Santa deliver his presents faster on Xmas eve. The mighty R33 GTR and an exceptionally rare Lotus Omega Carlton visited for a free WINTER check.
Something a bit different visited our Spilsby depot earlier in the year. ‘Gasser Champ’ Sean Milsom brought in some loose wheels for new tyres to be fitted to his modified Morris Van ahead of competing at Santa Pod and Melbourne Raceways in the ‘Gasser Circus’ race series.
This 1972 Plymouth ‘Roadrunner’ visited our Horncastle Branch recently for a wheel alignment. This huge American muscle car has a 6.6 litre 402 cubic inch V8. With great power comes great responsibility........
