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 and getting better fuel economy as compared to misaligned vehicles.
What is Wheel Alignment?
A two-wheel alignment, only corrects the front-end alignment which is usually just the toe angles. The rear axle on city cars is solid and requires no adjustments. E.g. VW Polo.
Unlike a two-wheel alignment, a four-wheel alignment will include both a front-end alignment and a rear suspension adjustment.
A four-wheel alignment is a mechanical adjustment of your suspension system to ensure all 4 wheels are in the correct position. It is done on vehicles with adjustable rear suspension, to bring all four wheels of your vehicle back into your vehicle’s original specifications. E.g. BMW 5, Mercedes E Class.
A four-wheel alignment including the adjustment of any camber, toe, and caster angles on both the rear-end and front-end of your vehicle applies to performance and luxury brands like BMW.
Booking before arriving is advised to avoid disappointment.
