Wheel alignment (Tracking)

01/06/2020

Our Mobile service vehicles carry laser alignment equipment as well as having the latest vehicle data lists giving the correct factory setting data for each vehicle. This means that we can track your vehicle to give improved handling, better tyre wear and improved fuel consumption.There are two alignement levels available, Two wheel and four wheel alignment. Two wheel alignment is the most common, and aligns the front wheels with the rear of the vehicle and corrects the toe in / toe out to the correct figures.  Four wheel tracking goes one more and also aligns the rear wheels and sets them parallel to the centre line of the vehicle.Ideally you should have your vehicle tracked every time you have new tyres fitted, or if you have hit a kerb or pothole. Some obvious signs that your tracking may be out are if the vehicle pulls to one side, or if the steering wheel is not level when traveling in a straight lline.
