If you are concerned about your vehicle's performance, a wheel alignment should be at the top of your list. Your car's wheels and tyres need to be aligned for several reasons, and ignoring this important maintenance can lead to severe problems and even accidents.

Whitbread Automotive use a cutting edge John Beam Wheel Alignment machine to ensure that your wheel alignment is correct and help keep your tyres from wearing unevenly.

Wheel alignment is the process of aligning the wheels of your vehicle to meet the manufacturer's specifications. This means that the tyres should be positioned parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground.

Properly aligned wheels not only enhance your car's performance but also contribute to your safety while driving. They improve your vehicle's handling, ensure even tyre wear, and increase fuel efficiency.

Some of the most common signs that your wheels are misaligned include uneven tyre wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, vibrations in the steering wheel, and your car pulling to one side.

Signs That You Might Need a Wheel Alignment

Several factors can lead to misaligned wheels, including potholes, rough terrain, worn suspension components, and accidental collisions. If you've recently had work done on your suspension or steering components, it's also essential to have your wheels checked for alignment.

The benefits of having your wheels aligned properly include improved handling, better fuel efficiency, a smoother ride, and even a longer lifespan for your tyres. Regular wheel alignment also prevents excessive wear on your suspension and steering components.

Most manufacturers recommend having your wheels aligned every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometres or at least once a year. If you notice any of the signs of misalignment, you should have your wheels checked as soon as possible.

While it is possible to perform a DIY wheel alignment, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a professional. Experienced technicians have specialised equipment that can detect even the slightest deviation from the manufacturer's specifications. It's important to choose a reputable and certified workshop to have your wheels aligned. Repco Authorised Service and Whitbread Automotive are two of Australia's largest networks of independent workshops that offer reliable wheel alignment services.

Wheel alignment is a crucial aspect of maintaining your vehicle's performance and safety. Regular maintenance and proper alignment of your wheels ensure that your tyres last longer, fuel efficiency is improved, and handling is enhanced.
