Wheel Misalignment

Wheel misalignment will affect the handling and safety of your vehicle and also lead to uneven tyre wear.

You will almost certainly not detect it, but a small amount of misalignment (1mm) means your tyre is being forced sideways approximately 1 metre every mile you travel. This is why it is essential to have the tracking regularly checked.

Could your wheels be misaligned?

It is recommended that a car’s wheels be aligned every 10,000 miles or at least once a year, depending on how the vehicle is driven. Having your car wheels aligned at Formula One Autocentres will have many benefits to your overall driving experience and annual expenditure, including:

• Gain a more secure handling and grip of your car by eliminating drifts to the left/right.
• Add thousands of extra miles to your tyre life through a reduction of tyre wear and friction.
• Improved fuel economy due to the decreased tyre resistance that results from misaligned tyres.
