What’s Included in Our Wheel Alignment Service?

Is your car drifting to one side, or does the steering wheel vibrate as you drive because of uneven tyre wear and contact with the road? These small annoyances can signal more significant issues. At Tyrepower, we offer a comprehensive wheel alignment service to help restore your car’s stability and ensure optimal, longer-lasting tyre performance.

Here’s an overview of our wheel alignment service so you know exactly what to expect when you visit us in-store.

 

What to Expect During Your Tyrepower Wheel Alignment Service

When you bring your vehicle to Tyrepower for a wheel alignment service, we aim to ensure every part of your alignment is carefully checked and adjusted for a safe, efficient, and comfortable driving experience.

 

Initial Inspection & Tyre Safety Check

Our wheel alignment service begins with a full inspection of your tyres. This includes a tyre safety check, where we look at the tread depth, wear patterns, and visible damage. We also assess tyre pressure and inspect your suspension components, as these can directly affect alignment.

Tyrepower technicians also look for any signs of damage to the wheel rims or unusual wear on the brake pads, which could signify alignment issues. This first step helps ensure that your alignment will be accurate and effective. Of course, we’ll discuss any concerns with you and give recommendations before starting the alignment adjustments.

 

Detailed Alignment Measurements (Camber, Toe, and Caster)

Wheel alignment isn’t a quick fix; it’s a precise process. Tyrepower uses advanced equipment to measure the three key angles that affect your tyre wear and vehicle handling. Each measurement takes your vehicle’s specifications into account to give you the perfect balance of tyre wear, control, and safety.

      Camber: This is the inward or outward tilt of your tyres when viewed from the front. It affects grip and how evenly your tyres wear. If the camber is too positive or negative, your tyres will wear unevenly, particularly on the inner or outer edges.

      Toe: When viewed from above, the toe is the angle at which your wheels point inward or outward. A misaligned toe can lead to excessive tyre wear, and you may notice your car pulling to one side when driving straight.

      Caster: This angle influences the stability of your steering and your control cornering. A negative caster causes tyre wear, and you may notice that steering is more difficult, as the wheels don’t return to centre as easily after turning.

 

Adjustments Based on Manufacturer Specifications

After taking measurements, we adjust each angle to match your vehicle’s factory specifications. These adjustments align your wheels for even tyre wear, better fuel efficiency, and smooth handling.

Additional Recommendations for Tyre Care

Finally, our technicians will give you helpful advice on maintaining optimal wheel alignment and keeping your tyres in good shape. This may include tips on tyre rotation, balancing, and checking tyre pressure—all important for making your tyres last longer.


Why Wheel Alignment Matters for Your Vehicle

Proper wheel alignment not only makes your drive feel smoother but also extends tyre life, saves fuel, and improves vehicle safety. Over time, regular wear, potholes, curb scrapes, and traffic accidents can throw your wheels out of alignment. This misalignment causes uneven tyre wear and makes your car noticeably harder to control. If your tyres are properly aligned, they grip the road evenly for a safer drive.


Schedule Your Wheel Alignment Service with Tyrepower

We recommend booking wheel alignment biannually, or for every 10,000km, which may come sooner depending on how much you drive. With Tyrepower stores around Australia, it’s easy to book a wheel alignment service near you. If you’ve noticed signs of misalignment or want to give your tyres a longer life, contact us at your local Tyrepower store for an expert wheel alignment service.
