PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR PAIRING TIRES AND WHEELS ABSTRACT Tires (11) are measured to determine the value of a parameter indicating a tendency of the tires (11) to cause vibration in a given direction in tire/wheel assemblies (50). Each measured tire (11) is assigned a tire rank designation in accordance with the order in which its measured value of the magnitude of that parameter falls in relation to the magnitudes of that parameter among a certain group (23) of tires. Wheels (13) are measured to determine the value of a second parameter indicating a tendency of the wheels to cause vibration in tire/wheel assemblies (50) in that same given direction. Each wheel (13) in a certain group of wheels is ranked in accordance with the order in which the magnitude of its second parameter falls in relation to the magnitudes of the second parameter among the other wheels (13) in the group. Tires (11) and wheels (13) having corresponding respective rank designations are paired with one another to be combined into a tire/wheel assembly (50) wherein the tire (11) and wheel (13) are mutually oriented such that the vibrational tendencies of the first and second parameters tend to cancel one another.
