The purpose of wheel alignment is to make sure that your tyres are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the road. If your car’s wheels are improperly aligned it can cause uneven tyre wear and shorten tire life. Improper alignment can also cause steering problems. Poor wheel alignment increases tyre rolling resistance which in turn makes your engine work harder. Your fuel economy goes down and your tyres wear more quickly.

Wheel alignment refers to the way your vehicle’s wheels are facing, as well as the process of making sure they are all facing the same way. Also known as tyre tracking, aligning the wheels first involves assessing the angles of the car or van’s wheels. Our technicians will be looking at:
Once we have this information, our technicians will look at the tyre alignment angles recommended by your manufacturer for your vehicle model.
Having the correct wheel alignment is crucial to keeping both your vehicle safe and your car parts free from damage and wear. If your wheel tracking is incorrect, then your vehicle will manoeuvre to one side while you drive or turn, and the steering will not be as responsive, these issues with your vehicle will impede the handling of your vehicle. Misaligned wheels will also increase your vehicles fuel consumption which will raise your day to day running costs.
