Tech Talk: Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment is the precise measuring and positioning of the wheels on your vehicle to ensure it steers and tracks straight, resulting in the least amount of wear to your tyres. When set correctly it will significantly extend the life of your tyres,  improve handling, and improve fuel economy. Your vehicle would benefit from a wheel alignment if the steering wheel isn’t straight or your car pulls to either side or wanders on straight roads.  We recommend a wheel alignment every time you replace your tyres or at least once a year to ensure your vehicle’s safety and to minimise tyre wear.
