Wheel Alignment service

We are an all capable tyre service. We provide wheel alignment checks for all passenger vehicles as well as trucks.  We do this to ensure that your vehicle is operating at its optimum performance. You may not be getting the mileage out of your tyres that you should be. If so, then chances are that your car has faulty or incorrect alignment. This causes premature wear and tear and tyres and suspension components.

There are many short term problems caused by bad wheel alignment. These include problems with the car’s handling, reduced performance, and general safety. Aside from this, there are many long-term effects. These include permanent damage to the vehicle’s chassis, as well as wear and tear on the vehicle.

Minor events can also cause bad wheel alignment. Driving into a pavement, over even over a pothole can throw the vehicle’s wheels out of alignment. Considering this, and the effects it has on the vehicle as a whole, repairing this problem is crucial.

Truck Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment (or tracking) is an important part of car maintenance. It refers to the angle and direction at which your tyres are set.

Wheel alignment involves adjusting the angles of the wheels to the recommended position as outlined in your vehicle's manufacturer specification.

Hitting kerbs or driving at speed through a pothole can result in wheel misalignment. Poorly aligned tyres can affect road holding, increase fuel consumption and decrease the life of your tyres, so it's really important to check your wheels regularly.

Look out for these classic symptoms of misaligned wheels.

  • Uneven tyre wear
  • Drag or pulling
  • Vibrating steering wheel.
