Why You Should Care About Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment - also known as tracking - refers to the angle and direction that your tyres are set at.

During a wheel alignment appointment, a professional mechanic will use specialist equipment to adjust your vehicle's wheels to the manufacturer's recommended specification - ensuring the wheels are parallel to each other.

Something as simple as hitting the kerb, driving over potholes or general wear and tear can all knock your wheels out of alignment.

Driving with misaligned wheels can lead to decreased tyre lifespan, increased fuel consumption and reduced braking efficiency - which could compromise your vehicle's safety and end up costing you more.

Depending on your location and your vehicle's make and model, wheel alignment could cost as little as £25.

If you want to maximise vehicle performance and help your tyres maintain optimal contact with the road, booking a wheel alignment appointment is a great idea.

Warning Signs to Look For

If you’ve noticed any of the following warning signs, then it’s time you booked your car in with a professional garage:

• Your car pulls to one side while driving

• Your steering wheel doesn’t return to its original position after completing a turn 

• Uneven tyre wear

• Steering wheel vibrations

• A squealing sound coming from your tyres

If you’re familiar with any of the above or your car isn’t handling as usual following a bump, you should book a wheel alignment appointment as soon as possible.

We know that car problems can be stressful, which is why we make it easy to choose the right garage for you, helping you stay one step ahead of any issues.

Do I Need 2- or 4-Wheel Alignment?

2-wheel alignment - or front-end alignment - is an adjustment of your vehicle's front steering and suspension, and can involve adjustments to the camber, toe and caster.

4-wheel alignment is an adjustment to suspension and steering that can include both front-end alignment and rear suspension adjustment.

Most modern vehicles - such as family cars, people carriers and all wheel drive models - need 4-wheel alignment.

Large trucks, classic cars and SUVs that have solid, fixed rear axles that cannot be adjusted in the way other wheels can may require a 2-wheel alignment instead.
