Proper steering alignment keeps you moving straight ahead, while a maintained suspension system keeps you from feeling any bumps along the way.
At Carology we can help set you in the right direction with a safe and smooth ride.
Driving over potholes, speed bumps or kerbs can knock your wheel alignment out. This can lead to uneven wear on your tyres and it could feel like you car is ‘pulling’ to one side. This in turn can lead to an increase in fuel consumption and premature wear on your tyres.
Correct wheel alignment ensures that the tyres are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other, and that on a level straight road your car will travel in a true straight line.
We recommend that you get your alignment checked regularly and every time after any violent shocks to your tyres, for example hitting a kerb, pothole or speed bump at speed.

Inspect steering and suspension system, including tyre condition and air pressure. Put vehicle on alignment rack. Mount and compensate sensors. Print out initial alignment readings – we’ll only recommend service if the readings are beyond your manufacturer’s specifications. Adjust alignment angles to your manufacturer’s specifications. Print out final alignment readings to verify alignment is within specification.
