To correct road force by using ForceMatch®: Rotate the tire Road Force® high spot on the wheel to TDC, or with the hood in
the raised position and the servo enabled, touch “START.” Mark the tire with a piece of chalk or a marker at TDC.
Rotate the rim low spot on the wheel to TDC, or with the
hood in the raised position and the servo enabled, touch
“START.” Mark the rim with a piece of chalk or a marker
at TDC.
Use a tire changer and align the tire and rim marks to one
another. Refer to the operation instructions for the tire
changer in your shop.
NOTICE
If the wheel assembly can be corrected by ForceMatching®, the results can be viewed prior to removing
the assembly from the balancer by touching “Show After Forcematching”. If the wheel assembly cannot be
corrected by Forcematching®, the diagnosis box will display “Forcematching will not bring assembly within
limits” and may suggest component replacement.

about the procedure
5.2.1. Match Codes
Match codes can be used to obtain optimal ForceMatch® results between multiple tire and rim assemblies. They are
especially helpful when high ForceMatch® values are encountered. The former Hunter MatchMaker® feature used a similar
system.
When a tire and rim assembly are balanced using
ForceMatch®, a number (match code) is displayed
above the tire.
This is the value of the high spot on the tire. It is an
arbitrary number. The below match code is 12.
