Alignment/Tracking
At Atlas Tyres and Exhausts, we are specialists in wheel alignment, using the most sophisticated computer technology for four-wheel alignment. We also utilize the most advanced front-wheel laser alignment technology. On a level road surface, your car should travel in a perfectly straight line. However, If your wheels are poorly aligned, they will need to be checked as this will result in uneven tyre wear, poor handling and reduced safety.
Wheel alignment (also known as tracking) involves adjusting the steering and suspension
components so that the car steers properly and the car travels in a perfectly straight line.
Under normal conditions, you can expect to have your wheels aligned at least once a year or after 10,000 miles –
whichever comes first.
How you know it’s time to have your car’s tracking checked.
• If it pulls significantly to one side when accelerating.
• If it pulls significantly to one side when you take your hand off the steering wheel.
• If you notice uneven tyre wear on any of your four tyres.
