The importance of wheel alignments

Wheel alignments are crucial for maintaining your vehicle's safety, performance, and fuel efficiency. Misaligned wheels can cause uneven tyre wear, which not only shortens the lifespan of your tyres but also compromises your car’s handling and steering response.

Regular wheel alignments ensure your vehicle drives smoothly and straight, reducing the risk of accidents caused by drifting or poor control.

  • Prolongs tyre lifespan and prevents uneven wear
  • Enhances handling, steering, and vehicle stability
  • Saves money by reducing fuel consumption and extending the life of your tyres and suspension components

Ensuring your tyres are properly aligned

A wheel alignment service involves adjusting the angles of your vehicle’s wheels to ensure they are set to the manufacturer’s specifications. The main aspects corrected are camber, caster, and toe, which affect how your tyres make contact with the road. 

During the service, a technician will inspect your suspension and steering components, as these can affect alignment. They will then use specialised equipment to measure the wheel angles and make precise adjustments. After the alignment, the technician will test your vehicle to ensure it drives straight and responds properly to steering input.

Signs your car needs a wheel alignment

Recognising the signs of misaligned wheels can help you address issues before they lead to more significant problems.

  • Vehicle pulling to one side when your car drifts left or right while driving straight
  • Uneven tyre wear when some parts of your tyres wear down faster than others
  • Steering wheel off-centre when the steering wheel isn’t centred when driving straight
  • Vibrations in the steering wheel when the steering wheel shakes, especially at higher speeds
  • Difficulty driving straight when it’s hard to keep your car going in a straight line

What types of wheel alignments are there?

There are two main types of wheel alignments: two-wheel and four-wheel alignments. The type of alignment your vehicle needs depends on its make, model, and drive system. Properly selecting the right alignment ensures better handling, even tyre wear, and improved driving safety.

  • Two-wheel alignment: Adjusts the front wheels only, typically used for vehicles with a solid rear axle.
  • Four-wheel alignment: Adjusts all four wheels, including rear wheel alignment. Suitable for vehicles with independent rear suspension or all-wheel drive.
  • Thrust alignment: A combination of both, aligning the front wheels with the direction of the rear wheels to ensure they are parallel.

Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between wheel alignment and wheel balancing?

A wheel alignment adjusts the angles of the wheels to ensure they are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the road. Wheel balancing, on the other hand, ensures that the weight is evenly distributed around each wheel and tyre, preventing vibrations.

Will a wheel alignment fix my vehicle’s vibration issues?

A wheel alignment can help if the vibration is caused by misaligned wheels, but it may not resolve vibrations due to unbalanced wheels, damaged tyres, or worn suspension parts. It’s important to have a professional inspection to diagnose the root cause.

Can I drive with bad wheel alignment?

Driving with poor alignment may be possible in the short term, but it can cause rapid tyre wear, reduce fuel efficiency, and negatively impact handling. It’s best to have the alignment corrected as soon as possible to avoid these issues.

How long does a wheel alignment take?

A standard wheel alignment service usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the condition of your vehicle and whether any additional adjustments or repairs are needed.

What happens if I don’t get a wheel alignment?

Ignoring wheel alignment can lead to uneven tyre wear, poor handling, increased fuel consumption, and potentially more costly repairs down the line, such as damage to the suspension system.
