Wheel alignment might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think about car maintenance, but it plays a vital role in overall vehicle performance. If your wheels are even slightly out of alignment, you could face issues with handling, fuel economy, and premature tyre wear.
Why Wheel Alignment Matters
When your wheels are properly aligned, your car drives straight, responds predictably to steering inputs, and your tyres wear evenly. Misalignment, on the other hand, can cause your vehicle to pull to one side, reduce fuel efficiency, and lead to uneven tread wear.
Benefits of Regular Wheel Alignment:
- Improved Handling: Your vehicle will feel more stable, especially at higher speeds.
- Extended Tyre Lifespan: Correct alignment ensures your tyres wear evenly, saving you money in the long run.
- Better Fuel Economy: Misaligned wheels can create rolling resistance, meaning your engine has to work harder and uses more fuel.
How to Spot Misalignment:
- Your steering wheel is off-centre
- Vehicle pulls left or right while driving straight
- Uneven or rapid tyre wear
- Vibrations or shaking in the steering wheel
