Laser wheel alignment (also known as four wheel alignment) consists of adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other. The purpose of these adjustments is to maximise tyre life and a vehicle that tracks straight and true when driving along a straight and level road. The symptoms of a car that is out of alignment are:

How to find us >>> Why 4 Wheel Alignment? Improper alignment is a major cause of premature tyre wear. Over the years, a properly aligned vehicle can add thousands of miles to tyre life. Better Gas Mileage Gas mileage increases as rolling resistance decreases. 4 Wheel Alignment sets all four wheels parallel which, along with proper inflation, minimises rolling resistance. Improved Handling Does your car pull to one side? Does the steering wheel vibrate? Do you constantly have to move the steering wheel to keep your car travellin straight ahead? Many handling problems can be corrected by total alignment. With all the system components aligned properly, road shock is more efficiently absorbed for a smoother ride.
Safe Driving A suspension system inspection is part of our alignment procedure. This allows us to spot worn parts before they cause costly problems. This can happen to any vehicle The front wheels are not aligned to the rear thrust line. This can happen from normal wear and stress. To steer straight ahead, you would have to steer the front wheels slightly to the right. A common result would be that the vehicle would "dog-track" and possibly "pull" to the side. It takes only a small misalignment to create problems and cause rapid tyre wear. |
