Wheel Alignment FAQs
Why is my car pulling to one side?
Usually wheel alignment, but worn suspension parts, unbalanced wheels or incorrect tyre pressure can also cause it. We check all four.
How often should I get a wheel alignment?
Whenever the car pulls, the steering wheel is off-center, or after hitting a big pothole or replacing steering and suspension parts.
Is wheel alignment the same as balancing?
No. Alignment sets the wheel angles so the car drives straight; balancing evens out weight on each wheel to stop vibration.
How long does an alignment take?
About 30 minutes for most cars.
