Why it matters

Signs your alignment is out

Audi RS6 & RS7 C7

Uneven tyre wear

Tyres wearing on the inside or outside edge cost you money long before they are legally worn out.

Pulling to one side

Pulling to one side

If the car drifts on a straight road or the steering wheel sits off centre, the angles are out.

After new parts

New suspension, lowering springs, coilovers or a knock to a kerb all change the geometry.

2 or 4 wheel

Which alignment your car needs

2 wheel alignment is for cars with a solid rear axle, where only the front wheels can be adjusted.

4 wheel alignment is for cars with independent rear suspension, where all four wheels are set. Most modern and performance cars need this.

We measure camber, caster and toe, compare them with the manufacturer's figures and adjust until they match.

How it works

What happens

  1. CheckWe look over the suspension and steering first, because worn parts stop an alignment holding.
  2. MeasureThe 3D targets go on each wheel and the cameras read the current angles.
  3. AdjustWe set camber, caster and toe to the manufacturer's figures, or to your road or track setup.

Questions

Common questions

How do I know if I need a wheel alignment?

Uneven tyre wear, the car pulling to one side, or the steering wheel sitting off centre on a straight road are the usual signs. Have it checked after new tyres, new suspension parts or hitting a kerb.

How long does a wheel alignment take?

About an hour. You're welcome to wait, or drop the car off and we'll call you when it's ready.

How often should I have it checked?

We suggest a check every 6,000 miles, and straight away after new tyres, new suspension parts or a hard knock on a kerb.

Can you set up a car for track days?

Yes. As well as the manufacturer's figures, we can set a road or track setup for modified and performance cars.

Where are you?

Our workshop is on Parkwood Industrial Estate in Maidstone, Kent, easy to reach from Rochester, Ashford and Tunbridge Wells.
