Get Your Car Wheel Alignment at Smile Servicing & Repairs

Wheel misalignment can affect car handling and make the car unsafe. When you book a wheel alignment in Portsmouth with a professional garage like us, a pre-suspension system inspection can highlight any worn or damaged parts before they cause a more costly problem.

If your tyres are wearing or going bald, if your car is pulling or you have a crooked steering wheel, the chances are your car is suffering from misalignment. You should also get your vehicle’s alignment checked every time you buy new tyres as you will lose the extra control fresh rubber brings otherwise.

While you should pay attention to the warning signs of misalignment and wear and tear, you cannot always tell just by looking – so get it checked out by booking a wheel alignment appointment in Portsmouth with Smile Servicing & Repairs.

Why is Wheel Alignment Important?

The modern car is built for comfort, performance and handling. To achieve and maintain the best ride possible, the steering and suspension need to be measured and adjusted within the manufacturer’s specifications. Misaligned wheels can diminish the life of your tyres by causing rapid and uneven treadwear. Properly aligned wheels improve driver safety, enhance your driving control, increase fuel efficiency and maximise the life of your tyres.

Alignment should always be done if the car starts to pull or drift to one side when the steering wheel is straight. If your tyres are wearing unevenly, with the outsides getting worn down to below the tread while there is still tread in the middle, you are need an alignment. If the tyres on one side of your vehicle seem to wear faster than those on the other side, you need to get your vehicle’s alignment checked.
