Simply put, wheel alignment is the process of adjusting the angle of each wheel so that they all align with the vehicle’s centre line. Each manufacturer and model has different alignment settings to ensure the steering and braking systems work properly, so it’s important to have a professional assess your car to make sure the settings are accurate. While alignment settings can differ between manufacturers and models, all vehicles are designed to deliver precise steering and braking responses - but only if the wheel alignment angles are correct for that vehicle.

Maintaining the wheel alignment on your car is an integral aspect of its overall maintenance and upkeep. However, this very important step is often ignored or skipped until the first symptoms of poor wheel alignment show up in the form of ruined tyres.

You should pay close attention to any signs that indicate your car needs a wheel alignment, including uneven or accelerated wear on the edges of your tyres, a mushy feeling or unresponsive steering, or the car steering wheel pulling to one side.

Obviously, you will need to get a wheel alignment is when noticeable symptoms of poor alignment are present, but ideally you shouldn't wait that long - there are also other “best” times:

To ensure optimal performance, you should consider a wheel alignment when rotating the tyres, replacing one or more tyres, replacing standard, steel rims with lightweight alloy rims, and after any maintenance or repairs on steering or suspension systems - both front and rear. Any modification that alters the vehicle ride height or weight distribution also requires an alignment check.
