Wheel balancing is mentioned as part of the fitting service and in a past four-tire promotion.

Prices are not consistently viewed as cheap; one customer called them high and another found the price above an advertised listing.
A customer with a puncture was told to return the next day, despite arriving at 6:48 pm for a repair they felt would take five minutes.
One review said the wheel alignment was worse after three attempts and that two different prices were quoted.

The Bottom Line
Yokohama Tyres in Al Rashidiya is geared toward buying and fitting tires rather than just browsing brands. Reviews mention Yokohama tires, tire installation, wheel balancing and alignment, with several customers returning for repeat purchases. The authorized-distributor status is a meaningful reason to consider it, especially if you want the reassurance of buying through an official channel.
Service feedback is generally positive but not uniform. Customers describe the technicians as knowledgeable, careful and honest, and one reviewer appreciated being shown the problems with old Geolanders and valves rather than simply being sold replacements. SMS reminders for tire rotation are another useful detail.
Some reviews also call the service fast and mention a wide choice of brands. Pricing needs a little homework. Several customers found the rates good or competitive, but others said prices were high or not especially cheap; one reviewer specifically suggested negotiating.
An older review mentioned a September promotion offering 50% off one-year-old tires when buying four, with balancing and alignment included, so confirm any offer rather than assuming it still applies. There are also practical cautions. A puncture customer was asked to return the next day, and another reported repeated alignment problems and inconsistent quotes.
For urgent work, call ahead if possible and check the alignment result and final price before leaving.
