Is Wheel Alignment Important? 

Wheel alignment is an extremely important part of vehicle servicing in order to influence a vehicle's handling characteristics which can impact overall safety. Aside from the safety and handling aspect, maintaining the correct alignment can also extend the life of your tyres and reduce wear - which will ensure you get the best value for money from your tyres as well as boosting fuel consumption. Having the correct wheel alignment improves vehicle handling and steering whilst also reducing braking distances compared to misaligned vehicles.

Put simply, wheel alignment refers to the direction your wheels are pointing, in all three dimensions. Alignment has a huge affect on how a car feels to drive, how it handles, and how quickly the tires wear.

A correctly aligned car will feel stable at all times, track straight and true, and will inspire confidence when accelerating, braking, and cornering. If you have poor car alignment, however, will want to pull you all over the road, and may need constant corrections to go straight ahead.

With time, miles, wear and tear, the chassis of your car will settle and bend. It won't be enough to notice looking at it, but it only takes an tiny fraction of an inch to negatively effect the wheel alignment.

There are three main aspects to wheel alignment: camber, caster, and toe. By attaching special laser measuring equipment to the wheels it is possible to read the angles of these.

Adjustments can then be made to the car's suspension and steering geometry, and with the laser alignment equipment still attached to the car, continue to be made until the settings are back to the factory specification, or other setting.
