Tyre Rotation

Wheel alignment involves adjusting the angles of the wheels to the manufacturer’s specifications. This process corrects the angles of the tyres relative to each other and to the road surface.

Key alignment angles include camber, caster, and toe. Camber measures the tilt of the tyre inwards or outwards from vertical when viewed from the front.

Caster measures the angle of the steering axis when viewed from the side. Toe measures the angle of the tyres relative to each other when viewed from above.

Proper wheel alignment ensures even tire wear, stable steering, and improved fuel efficiency.

Signs that your vehicle may need a wheel alignment include uneven tyre wear, pulling to one side while driving, or a crooked steering wheel when driving straight.

Wheel balancing involves evenly distributing the weight of the tyre and wheel assembly to prevent vibrations and uneven tire wear. During this process, the tyre and wheel are placed on a balancing machine, which detects any imbalances. Small weights are then strategically added or removed to ensure that the assembly rotates smoothly.

Balancing is particularly important for smooth and comfortable driving, as imbalanced wheels can cause vibrations felt through the steering wheel or vehicle body. It also helps to preserve suspension components and prolong tire life.
