Wheels balancing is important but how important?
How important is wheels balancing and what consequences it could have? Is it true it causes noise vibration as pulsing on speeds over 60 km/hr? I wanted to figure out if they did wrong balancing last time at the shop.

I only mark my tire and swap front and back each change (just don’t cross, left side stay left side), never had issues

I wanted to figure out if they did wrong balancing last time at the shop.Tire vibrations are often caused by wheel imbalance, uneven or abnormal tire wear, or a wheel alignment issue. To address this, it's recommended to have your wheels balanced and aligned, and to check the condition and pressure of your tires. Other possible causes include suspension problems, brake problems, or warped rims.

I was told by the dealer that I don't need tire rotation since I have winter tires on rims.
I'm guessing they rotate and balance the tires when they are changed.0 -
I don't take chance and balance my wheels at each tire's change.

Everything that was inspected points to wrong balance on wheels.

Yes, it is true that poor balancing can cause vibrations in the steering wheel.

Driving on the roads in Quebec will also have that effect.

It's better send your car to the dealer to check the reason.

set your wheels sideways, you will see then, wheel balancing is always good

After another balancing, they found that some of the wheels were out of balance, they said.

Most vehicle wheels aren't perfectly balanced, you need to balance it from time to time and especially when changing tires or wheels.
The most common effect of unbalanced wheels are direction offset when driving and uneven tire wear, but sure it could also cause vibration.

Is the problem solved?

Didn't shops balance wheels every time they replace tires on it?
I think it's the alignment that's optional.
