Professional Tyre Tracking and Wheel Alignment

Tyre tracking involves ensuring your wheels are properly aligned to your car. If they’re out of kilter, not only will the overall handling of the vehicle feel more difficult, but your tyres will suffer from uneven wear. This can mean they need replacing more frequently, at greater expense to you. At Archer’s Autos, we offer fast and efficient, professional tyre tracking and wheel alignment as just one of our expert services.

Why Is Tyre Tracking and Wheel Alignment Necessary?

When your car first leaves the showroom and each time you have new tyres fitted after that, the wheel and tyre assembly should be accurately balanced as a matter of course. In theory, this process should last the life of the new tyres and tracking and alignment shouldn’t be necessary. But routine use can cause issues. Wear and tear can cause one or more of the balance weights to loosen or come off entirely. And rough handling, knocking the kerb hard while parking or driving over potholes can all cause misalignment.

That can cause extra strain on certain parts of the tyre, increasing wear and tear, which can lead to less efficient braking and put you and those around you at risk. So what are the signs that you may need a professional to get your car’s wheels back in alignment? If it becomes harder to steer in a straight line (allowing for the very slight pull to the left that’s often caused by road camber) or if you feel vibration through the steering wheel when travelling at some speeds, then it’s time to get your car checked out.
