What is car wheel alignment?
Car wheel alignment (sometimes referred to as wheel or tyre tracking) is a service that involves correcting the angles of your wheels so that they are accurately re-set to the original manufacturer's specifications.
It’s recommended to get this checked whenever you replace your tyres as, over time, the rigours of driving on the road can cause your wheels to become misaligned. You may need to align your car wheels if your car has recently had a more significant knock or impact, such as going through a deep pothole.
For the best performance, you ideally want to have as much of the surface area of the tyre to be in contact with the ground as possible. Getting your tyres and wheel alignment checked and adjusted regularly will help optimise your vehicle's fuel consumption, road handling and tyre life. Misaligned wheels can lead to uneven tyre wear and shorter tyre lifespans, meaning you will need to get your tyres replaced sooner than normal.

How do you know if your car needs a wheel alignment or tracking?
Chances are that you won’t be able to see whether your wheels are misaligned just from looking at the steering and suspension components, but there are a few signs you can look out for if you suspect your tracking is off:
- The vehicle pulling to one side
- Reduced fuel economy
- Uneven tyre wear
- Increased wear on suspension components
Do I need wheel alignment with new tyres?
Yes, we recommend that you arrange a car wheel alignment service when you get new tyres. Over time, your wheels can easily become misaligned due to things like driving through potholes, mounting curbs or anything else that shakes or impacts your tyres. By the time you replace your tyres, your wheels are likely to be slightly misaligned, so it's a good idea to have them realigned before you fit your new tyres.
Do I need 2 or 4 wheel alignment?
The type of alignment service your vehicle needs depends upon your steering and suspension system, manufacturer recommendations. Most modern vehicles — cars, small SUVs, crossovers, and vans — require a four-wheel alignment. If you have the option to align all four wheels, you should. If you are unsure you can get in touch with your local ATS centre and our technicians will be abel to advise.At ATS, we offer both front wheel alignment and four wheel alignment services.
Is wheel alignment part of MOT?
No, wheel alignment is not checked as part of an MOT test. However, misaligned wheels can pose a risk to your safety and cause various other problems that may fail an MOT, such as uneven tyre wear. Misaligned wheels also cause poor fuel economy, so it's in a driver's best interests to keep their wheels aligned.
How often does your car need wheel alignment/tracking?
For most cars, there are no specific requirements. It is common that wheel alignment is checked when a vehicle is having new tyres fitted. Over time, and through potholes and mounting curbs a car’s wheel alignment can be impacted.
If you regularly check the conditions of your tyres, you should be able to spot the signs that your tyre or wheel alignment is out.
How long does a wheel alignment take?
Typically, a wheel alignment service takes around 30 minutes. However, this may vary depending on the vehicle. Our ATS centres provide free coffee and Wi-Fi that you can enjoy while you wait.
Alignment Terminology
As shown above there are various different types of misalignment positions that can occur. These toe in, toe out, positive camber or negative camber.
Toe In and Toe Out If your vehicle is pulling to one side it could be a result of incorrect toe alignment. “Toe” looks at whether your front tyres are closer or further apart compared to the rear tyres. Depending on your vehicle it may need different toe settings compensating for the way your wheels wil either pull towards each other or away.
Negative Camber and Positive Camber “Camber” simply means the tilt of your tyre, it can be inward or outward. Camber is set by the vehicle manufacturer. Your camber alignment can be knocked off by driving through pot holes and other forms of impact on your wheels.
