Really hard braking on our cars does move the tires around the rim in tiny increments over and over and they do move without breaking the bead.
special equipment is not required to align the high spot of the tire runout with the lowspot of the wheel runout, A motivated, experienced installer is required.

If the tire really moved in relation to the wheel why waste time & money "roadforce balancing" ?
