4 Wheel Alignment

WHAT IS FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT?

Wheel alignment, is the process of ensuring that the wheels on your vehicle are set to the optimum position according to the car manufacturer’s specifications. Not all vehicles have adjustments on the rear axle, however we still check this to highlight any problems that may be apparent. In order for us to ensure the front axle alignment is correct we use the rear wheel positions to set the vehicles straight line ability.

WHEN IS A WHEEL ALIGNMENT REQUIRED?

If you notice ;

  • Uneven or feathered tyre wear

  • Steering wheel vibration

  • Dragging or pulling to one side

  • Steering wheel position not correct

HOW OFTEN DOES MY CAR NEED AN ALIGNMENT?

Wheel alignment is recommended approximately every year depending on mileage, vehicle use or possible incidents such as potholes etc.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF WHEEL ALIGNMENT?

Incorrect alignment of the wheels can result in poor fuel economy and increased tyre wear unnecessarily as the vehicle will need to work harder to drive along in a straight line which not only increases your motoring expenses but also your carbon footprint.

WHAT IS THE COST?

Front wheel alignment - £35 + VAT

4 wheel alignment (when rear adjustment is possible) - £60 + VAT
