The common symptoms of out-of-balance wheels are uneven and faster tread wear, poor fuel economy, and vibration in the steering wheel, the floorboard or the seat that gets worse at faster speeds. If a front wheel isn't properly balanced you'll likely feel vibration in the steering wheel.
Wheel balancing should be performed more frequently, while a wheel alignment should not be needed as often. Improperly balanced wheels will be adjusted to the proper balance. Tyre balancing is typically performed when tyres are rotated on the vehicle, which is usually every 10,000 kms or 6 months.
Small lead weights are attached to the rim of the wheel to ensure that they are balanced. Most manufacturers recommend that all four tyres should be rotated and balanced approximately every fifteen thousand kms. Typically, tread wears away quicker on the front tyres than on the back tyres.

It's bad enough that unbalanced tires can wear out quicker and make it unsafe to drive. To make it worse, they can also cause damage to other parts of your vehicle. For example, driving with tires that aren't properly balanced puts undue stress on your shocks, bearings, and wheel assembly.
An unbalanced wheel will cause the tyre to vibrate which then causes the steering wheel to shake. If there's too much weight on one side of the wheel, it can cause the car to pull to that side as well as shaking the steering wheel.
