Why Is Wheel Alignment Done? Its Impact on Safety and Tyre Life

To have your wheel alignment checked or to book an appointment, you can contact us by phone or via WhatsApp .

What Is Wheel Alignment?

Wheel alignment is the process of aligning the front wheels of the vehicle according to the angles specified by the manufacturer. Correct wheel alignment allows the vehicle to move straight and in a stable manner.

Why Is Wheel Alignment Important?

In vehicles with incorrect wheel alignment, tyres wear irregularly and driving safety decreases. Steering control also weakens and the vehicle may not track straight.

  • More stable and controlled driving
  • Extended tyre life
  • More balanced fuel consumption
  • Improved steering response and control

What Are the Symptoms of Misalignment?

  • Steering pulls to the right or left on a straight road
  • Tyres wearing on the inside or outside edges
  • Steering wheel not centred when driving straight
  • A feeling of instability while driving

When Should Wheel Alignment Be Checked?

Wheel alignment should be checked after hitting a pothole or curb, after tyre changes, or whenever an abnormal feeling is noticed in the steering.

What Happens If Wheel Alignment Is Not Done?

Driving for a long time with incorrect wheel alignment may cause premature tyre wear, damage to suspension components and a significant reduction in driving safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is wheel alignment the same as balancing?

No. Wheel alignment adjusts the direction and angles of the wheels, while balancing ensures that the tyres rotate smoothly and evenly.

How often should wheel alignment be done?

It is generally recommended to check wheel alignment every 10,000–15,000 km or during tyre changes.

Will tyres be damaged if wheel alignment is not done?

Yes. Incorrect wheel alignment causes tyres to wear irregularly and much faster than normal.
