Tyres & Wheel Alignment

What Is a Wheel Alignment?

Put simply, wheel alignment is the science of precisely measuring and then positioning the wheels on your car to ensure the least amount of wear to your tyres. When correctly set it will significantly extend the life of your tyres, your car also should handle better, be safer to drive and enjoy greater fuel economy.

When Do I Need a Wheel Alignment?

  • If your steering wheel isn't straight or your car pulls to either side or wanders on straight roads.
  • After an encounter with a particularly nasty pothole or kerb.
  • When you are replacing your tyres.
  • We recommend a wheel alignment twice a year to ensure your vehicle's safety, to improve handling and to help maximise the life of your tyres.

Every vehicle has a different combination of camber, castor and toe measurements. These must be correctly measured, interpreted and adjusted by an expert.

Dart Automotive have your vehicle's specifications, as recommended by the manufacturer, available for reference to ensure the best possible results.
