Tyre alignment, also known as wheel alignment, can improve the performance and longevity of your tyres. It can also help your vehicle handle better and avoid tugging in one direction or vibrating unnaturally on the road. Many garages will claim to offer a wheel alignment service in Colchester but to ensure that you get the best service, we recommend using a professional company specialising in wheel alignment services – like Tyre Smart!

Signs of poor wheel alignment

When your automobile needs to be aligned, there are a few common indicators. One or more of thefollowing alignment difficulties may be present:
  • A common occurrence is pulling to the right or left
  • Tyre wear that is uneven or occurs quickly
  • Steering that makes a lot of noise
  • Tyres that squeal
  • The steering wheel is misaligned when driving straight

What happens if I don’t get it fixed right away?

Uneven wear can degrade a tyre's performance and even endanger lives because an unevenly worn tyre is more likely to blow out. Misaligned wheels also have a worse fuel efficiency since they have more resistance to the road, which results in higher gas mileage. Correct wheel alignment is necessary not just for road safety and comfort but also to increase the life of your tyres. Misaligned vehicles will encounter quick or uneven tyre wear, necessitating their replacement considerably sooner.

What is the wheel alignment process?

Front-end, thrust, and four-wheel alignments are the three basic types of alignments offered. The alignment your vehicle will receive is determined by the kind of suspension it has. Our mechanics will be able to advise you on the best sort of alignment for your car. They'll begin by taking your vehicle for a test drive to determine precisely what's wrong with it.

They'll then use a hoist to lift your automobile and inspect the tyres and suspension components to ensure everything is in order. Before the alignment procedure begins, any parts that are broken or exhibit signs of excessive wear will be replaced. The tyre pressure on all four tyres is then checked, and any necessary adjustments are performed. Finally, your vehicle will be connected to the alignment machine. Our mechanics will begin performing suspension angle adjustments following the manufacturer's standards.

Rang tyre-smart this morning as urgently needed 2 tyres for our horse trailer. They were very accommodating, were able to fit us in and the staff were polite, friendly and helpful. We've not used them before, but would definitely use again.

Came here after recommendations from 2 friends. Car fell down a huge pothole causing issues. The guy who served me was super friendly and checked my wheels and rebalanced all in under 30 minutes which was super helpful as I was in a massive rush! Didn't even need new wheels as he managed to knock out the dents that were caused by the pothole. Excellent service and very efficient, would highly recommend!
