Our 4-Wheel Alignment Service

4-wheel laser alignment is the most accurate way to set your vehicle's tracking and is recommended for all modern cars with independent rear suspension - which includes most vehicles on UK roads today.

During a 4-wheel alignment check, we measure and adjust (where necessary) the following parameters:

• Toe: Whether the front (or rear) of each tyre points inward or outward. Incorrect toe is the most common cause of tyre scrubbing and wear.
• Camber: The vertical tilt of the tyre when viewed from the front. Excessive camber causes edge wear.
• Caster: The angle of the steering axis when viewed from the side. Affects straight-line stability.
• Thrust angle: Whether the rear axle is pointing in the same direction as the front. Causes the vehicle to 'crab' and can't be corrected by adjusting front alignment alone.

After alignment, we provide a printed report showing before and after measurements, giving you clear evidence of the work carried out.
