Radial truing corrects the vertical hop in a wheel, resulting in a perfectly circular structure. Vertical hop occurs when the rim is not centered about the hub. Wheels that have large runout (variation in radius) may introduce significant radial force variations contributing to vibration and unstable steering. Most alloy wheels have a slight localized hop near the weld joint, which is caused by the manufacturing process and does not generally cause significant radial force variations.
