Tyres require proper care to ensure their longevity. One essential aspect of maintenance is regularly checking your car’s wheel alignment—not just when you notice vibrations or shaking.
When a wheel is misaligned, the other wheels must work harder to compensate, which can lead to several issues, such as:
- A pull on the steering wheel, requiring constant counter-steering.
- Uneven tyre wear.
- Potential mechanical problems down the line.
How can you address this?
Visit one of our wheel alignment centres, where a qualified technician will ensure all your wheels are properly aligned with the road and each other.
This involves adjusting three key alignment angles:
- Camber angle: The tilt of the wheels inward or outward relative to the top of the tyre.
- Toe angle: The inward (“toe-in”) or outward (“toe-out”) angle of the leading edges of a pair of wheels.
- Caster angle: The angle between the pivot line to the upper ball joint and vertical, which impacts how your steering wheel returns to the center after a turn.
