Tired of uneven tyre wear and steering issues? Get precise wheel alignment in Perth to extend
tyre life, improve safety, and enhance your driving comfort.
Wheel alignment is a part of automobile maintenance and service that ensures your car’s wheels are positioned correctly according to the manufacturer’s specifications. Correct alignment helps extend tyre life, ensures safe handling, improves fuel efficiency, and enhance the overall driving experience. Misaligned wheels, on the other hand, can cause uneven tyre wear, compromised handling, and reduced safety on the road. So, always schedule a wheel alignment when installing
new tyres and roughly every 10,000 km to extend the lifespan of your tyre investment.

Let’s find out the common types of wheel alignment service to run your car smoothly and safely on the road.
Thrust alignment focuses on aligning the front wheels of a vehicle to its rear axle. The term ‘thrust’ refers to the direction the rear wheels push, and the goal is to match that direction as closely as possible to the direction the front wheels face. Simply, this type of alignment ensures that all four wheels on the car are ‘squared’ with each other. This service is essential for all vehicles with a solid rear suspension. As it ensures the vehicle moves in a straight line and gives you a better result on the road in terms of tyre wear, fuel economy and safety.
A total four-wheel alignment is a comprehensive wheel alignment service that adjusts all four wheels of your vehicle to meet the manufacturer's factory specifications. This ensures that each wheel is parallel to the others and perfectly perpendicular to the ground. During this service, the thrust line of the rear wheels is aligned with the vehicle's centerline, and the front wheels are then adjusted to match the same centerline/thrust line. We recommend this alignment for vehicles with adjustable front and rear suspensions. It improves your vehicle's stability, enhances handling, and prevents uneven tyre wear, ensuring a smoother and more efficient ride.
Proper wheel alignment ensures your car handles smoothly and provides safer control on the road.
Aligned wheels minimise vibrations, enhance stability, and improve overall driving comfort.
With better handling and less effort needed to steer, long drives become easier and less tiring.
Correct alignment reduces rolling resistance, helping your car run more efficiently and save fuel.
