FAQs | Wheel alignment and toe adjustment

Why is wheel alignment important?

There are several reasons why regular wheel alignment is important:

  • Driving safety: Misaligned wheels can affect your vehicle's handling, making it harder to keep the car steady on a straight road or to control it at higher speeds.
  • Tyre wear: Improperly aligned wheels lead to uneven tyre wear, which can result in faster deterioration and increased replacement costs.
  • Fuel efficiency: Misalignment increases rolling resistance, causing your car to consume more fuel to keep the wheels moving.
  • Vehicle longevity: Misaligned wheels can strain other vehicle components, such as the steering system, leading to accelerated wear and reducing the overall lifespan of your vehicle.
  • Legal requirements: In some countries, regular wheel alignment is mandated by law and must be inspected and maintained accordingly.

The following symptoms may indicate that a wheel alignment service is necessary:

  • The steering feels loose or unresponsive
  • The steering wheel is not centred when driving straight
  • The vehicle pulls to the left or right while driving
  • You hear unusual noises or notice vibrations while driving.
