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.

"Called into McManus tyre’s Saturday to get tyres. And I’ve honestly never had service like it. I was so nervous calling in as I’ve no idea about cars but Kat on reception was absolutely brilliant her knowledge of tyres was fantastic and had a price range for everyone. Had only sat down and Derek walked in telling me my car was ready. Couldn’t be happier with how I was treated and with there professionalism Will 100% definitely be back. Thank you guys."
