It is easy enough to tight one side a little and loosen the other side a little and maintain a centered wheel.


?? If you tighten one side and loosen the other, the rim will shift
toward the side you tightened.

How much it shifts depends on various factors. I guess you may still
call it "a centered wheel" if your tolerance regarding "centered" is
generous enough. But it's very unlikely to be centered better than before.
