Can an out of round tire be balanced?

An out-of-round tire can be balanced, but it may not resolve all vibration issues since balancing primarily addresses weight distribution rather than the tire's shape. If a tire is significantly out of round, it might be necessary to replace it, as balancing may not eliminate the problems caused by the irregular shape. Additionally, a tire that is out of round can lead to uneven wear and handling issues, making it unsafe for use.
