4 wheel alignment, all four wheels to spec
A 4 wheel alignment sets all four wheels, front and rear, to the manufacturer’s angles. It is the more complete job, and the right one for many modern cars.
Why all four
Kerbs and potholes hit at speed can throw the alignment out, and the car then wears its tyres faster. Setting every wheel to the manufacturer’s specification restores handling, even tyre wear, fuel economy and safety.
How often should I have a 4 wheel alignment?
At least once a year for the best tyre and steering performance, and after any hard knock to a wheel.
Do I need a 2 or 4 wheel alignment?
A 4 wheel alignment is usually needed for all-wheel-drive cars and those with independent rear suspension. Front-wheel-drive cars with a fixed rear axle can often do with a 2 wheel alignment. Call us and we will tell you what yours needs.
How can I tell if I need one?
Uneven tyre wear, the car pulling to one side, an off-centre steering wheel, or vibration through it.
Can a kerb or pothole affect my alignment?
Yes. A pothole or a minor collision can throw it off. Abnormal tyre wear is often the first sign.
