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.
FIRST STOP - Donnybrook customer reviews
"Arriving at work I discovered my front right tyre was punctured flat, with a nail right through the tread (the car is a 2024 Golf, so the tyres are brand new). Work is just a kilometre from FS Donnybrook, so I nursed the car on to the forecourt, saw the line of cars already waiting there and in the shop, and just walked in, with no notice, and essentially begged them for help. 'Leave the key and your phone number' Ricardo told me, 'we'll call you when its ready'. 20 minutes later my phone rang, job done, brand new tyre, ready to go. Thanks to Kevin and Ricardo, would deffo recommend!."

"The exact tyres I wanted were fitted promptly."
"I was left just outside my work with a flat tyre (over 35km from home) when I discovered my car didn’t have a spare wheel the only option I had was to source a company local who could replace my tyre for me. The Customer service from these lot was unreal they had so much time and patience for me in a very stressful situation! After my breakdown company assisted me with getting to them, united tyres were straight on the job and got me back up and running in no time at all! They also put my mind at ease by checking all of the other tyres reassuring me I was good to get back on the road! I couldn’t recommend this bunch more. Thanks so much for making my situation much less stressful."
