Wheel Alignment Services

A wheel alignment involves adjusting your vehicle’s wheels to ensure they are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground. Three key angles determine proper alignment: camber, caster, and toe.

  • Camber refers to the tilt of the wheels in relation to the road surface.
  • Caster is the angle of the wheel’s pivot point, which affects straight-line stability.
  • Toe represents the directional difference between the tires and the vehicle’s centerline.

For optimal performance, both the front and rear wheels should be correctly aligned to prevent uneven tire wear and handling issues. Regular wheel alignments help extend tire life, improve fuel efficiency, and enhance driving safety. Misaligned wheels can cause your vehicle to pull to one side and lead to steering or suspension problems if left unaddressed.

Common signs of misalignment include:
✅ Your vehicle pulling to the left or right

✅ Off-center steering wheel when driving straight

3. How often should I get a wheel alignment?

It’s recommended to check your alignment every 12,000 to 15,000 km or at least once a year. However, if you frequently drive on rough roads, hit curbs or potholes, you may need it sooner.

  • Worn-out suspension components
  • Normal wear and tear over time

5. What are the benefits of a wheel alignment?

A standard wheel alignment usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your vehicle and any additional adjustments needed.
