The steering system on every car is very important and requires regular maintenance to keep it at an optimum standard. The steering rack on all motor vehicles is easily knocked out of alignment by all the speed humps and potholes in the road. When the wheel alignment becomes out of tolerance the tyres will wear unevenly on either edge of the side walls.
Noticeable signs of wheel imbalance to look out for are:
Steering wheel is off-set when the vehicle is travelling in a straight line
The vehicle may drift/pull to the left or right
The front tyres will wear bald or show signs of uneven wear on either edge
If any of these faults are present on your vehicle we strongly recommend you have your wheel alignment checked and adjusted if necessary, as soon as possible
Incorrect
alignment can result in rapid irregular tyre wear and can even affect the
handling and safety of the vehicle.
Wheel
alignment can be affected by driving against a kerb, hitting a pothole in the
road or by excessive wear to steering or suspension components. Alignment of
wheels and tyres to the specification required by your vehicle is an important
way to guarantee a smooth ride and to get the most out of your tyres.
