Frequently asked questions

No, it's not the same.

Alignment involves setting the wheels on each axle in parallel, and the axles parallel to each other, adjusting wheel angles so that the car steering does not drift to one side, as well as ensuring driver comfort and good grip for the tyres, thus guaranteeing safety at the wheel.

Balancing is a mechanical process of adjusting the wheels to prevent vehicle vibration at any speed, no matter what type of driving is used.

The modern car is built for comfort, performance and handling. In order to achieve and maintain the best ride possible, the steering and suspension needs to be measured and adjusted within the motor manufacturer’s specifications. This can only be done by measuring all four wheels and having a proper full four wheel alignment measurement.

Wheel alignment can be affected by hitting the kurb or a large pothole in the road or travelling regularly on gravel roads. If alignment is out, it can cause excessive wear to your tyres and problems with steering or suspension.

"Really pleased with the politeness of the guy I was dealing with today as I hate going into garages etc and treated like a stupid woman. Plus I priced my tyres in several other places and this was the cheapest by £40."

"Always have had a great experience here over the past few years. Their customer service and communication is first class and they always check with you before carrying out work or ordering/fitting parts. Guys at the desk are super well informed and treat you with respect and take the time to explain everything. All works are written out in a professional invoice so you can keep for your records. Highly recommended."
