Wheel Alignment – Supertracker

Autotecnic have the latest in wheel tracking technology to get your tyres tracking straight and hitting the road uniformly

Reduced tyre Wear

Improper alignment is a major cause of premature tyre wear. Over the years, a properly aligned vehicle can add thousands of miles to tyre life.

Better fuel Mileage

Fuel mileage increases as rolling resistance decreases. Total alignment sets all four wheel parallel which, along with proper inflation, minimizes rolling resistance.

Improved Handling

  • Does your car pull to one side?
  • Does the steering wheel vibrate?
  • Do you constantly have to move the steering wheel to keep your car traveling straight ahead?Many handling problems can be corrected by total alignment. With all the system components aligned properly, road shock is more efficiently absorbed for a smoother ride.

Safer Driving

A suspension system inspection is part of our alignment procedure. This allows us to spot worn parts before they cause costly problems.

  • * For vehicles with non-adjustable rear suspensions
  • * Angle readings are measured at all four wheels.
  • * The steering wheel is centered.
  • * Front wheels are referenced to rear thrust line and set to specifications.
  • * Angle readings are measured at all four wheels.
  • * Rear wheels are set to specification. (Rear thrust line corresponds to vehicle centerline.)
  • * Steering wheel is centered.
  • * Front wheels are referenced to the rear thrust line and set to specification.

Q. How important is wheel alignment?

A. Think of it this way. Research indicates that the average car is driven about 12,000 miles per year. A car with toe alignment just 0.34 degrees (Just 0.17 inches) out of specification has dragged its tyres sideways for more than 68 miles by the end of the year!

Q. What are the “symptoms” of a car that’s out of alignment?

A. Have your car checked if you notice:

  • * Excessive or uneven tyre wear.
  • * Steering wheel pulls to the left or right.
  • * Feeling of looseness or wandering.
  • * Steering wheel vibration or shimmy.
  • * Steering wheel is not centered when car is moving straight ahead.

Q. How often should I have my car aligned?

A. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation noted in your owner’s manual. But, as a general rule, have your vehicle’s tyres checked every 10,000 miles or at least once a year.
