Electronic Four-Head wheel alignment and computer wheel balancing will ensure an accurate wheel alignment and balance for your vehicle. This will also extend the life of your tyres, and correct any steering problems. Regular wheel alignments will normally save you more than what they cost in reduced tyre wear. With the alignment of a vehicle’s tyres easily disturbed from hitting a kerb or a pothole, tyres should be checked often, not just to avoid wear-and-tear, but to ensure stable handling for optimal safety.

Does your vehicle need a Wheel Alignment?

Some obvious signs are...

You have recently hit your tyres against a curb or a cement divider, or maybe a nasty pothole.
The steering wheel does not return to centre and the car pulls to one side on a straight road.
Uneven tread wear (inner or outer edge) which wears out your tyres prematurely because of the drag on the tyre.
You have just had new tyres fitted.

A correct wheel alignment will ensure maximum tyre contact with the road and ensure your vehicle travels on a straight track. When your tyres are correctly aligned your vehicle should handle better, be safer to drive, achieve better fuel economy, and most importantly, extend the life of your tyres.

Some vehicles only require a front wheel alignment although most modern cars require a four-wheel alignment. Our state of the art microline computerised wheel aligner ensures your vehicle’s tyres are aligned to the exact manufacturer’s specifications for your vehicle’s year, make and model.
