What is Wheel Alignment
Wheel alignment, or tracking, is the process of ensuring your vehicle's wheels are set to the optimum position, as per the car manufacturer's specifications. The process involves checking the direction and angle of the wheels and is an important part of vehicles maintenance.
What happens if my wheels are misaligned?
Misaligned wheels can cause uneven and rapid tyre wear, as well as poor fuel economy.
The typical signs of incorrect wheel tracking alignment are:
- Uneven or feathered tyre wear
- Steering wheel vibration
- Drag or pulling
- Audible distress while turning corners
What is toeing?
Toeing refers to the angle of your tyres. If a set of wheels either on the front axle or the rear axle are both pointing in, this is called ‘toeing-in’ and if they are both pointing out, this is ‘toeing-out’. Our standard front or rear wheel alignment service will help correct this issue.
Our four-wheel alignment equipment also comes with the most up to date vehicle adjustment assistance with three-dimensional technical support, which assists our technicians in delivering the best service possible.
Front wheel alignment can take 30+ minutes and covers toe adjustment to the front wheels only.
Four-wheel alignment can take 60+ minutes and covers toe alignment on both the front and rear wheels where possible. Any adjustments to camber and castor (if required) will be charged separately.
Not all vehicles can have their rear toe adjusted due to the vehicle’s design or manufacture - please discuss this with our branch staff.
Please note, we reserve the right to refuse a wheel alignment if your vehicle's suspension has been modified.
