We come to you to check your wheel alignment, so your car drives straight and your tyres last.
We measure your wheel angles, adjust them to specification and explain what has been throwing them out.
We measure camber, toe and caster against your vehicle’s manufacturer settings to see how far they have drifted.
Our technicians adjust the wheel angles so your car tracks straight and the steering wheel sits level.
We inspect your tyres for the uneven wear that points to alignment faults and explain what we see.
If new tyres are fitted, we can check wheel alignment so they wear evenly from the start.
Describe the pulling, the uneven tyre wear or the off-centre steering wheel, and share your vehicle details.
We inspect tyre condition, pressures and suspension and steering parts, because worn components stop settings from holding.
Alignment equipment measures each wheel’s angles and compares them with the manufacturer’s settings for your vehicle.
We adjust the angles back into specification and confirm the final readings with you before we leave.
No dashboard light warns you about alignment, so your tyres and steering are the early warning.
Signs of poor wheel alignment to watch for:
The car pulls to one side when you hold the steering wheel lightly
The steering wheel sits off-centre when you drive straight
The inner or outer edges of your tyres wear faster than the centre
Steering feels vague, loose or slow to return to centre
The symptoms started after hitting a kerb or pothole
Contact 888 to describe your symptoms and check wheel alignment availability in Birmingham and across the West Midlands.
A wheel alignment usually takes about 45 to 90 minutes. Worn steering or suspension parts, or seized adjusters, can add time.
A standard wheel alignment in the UK usually starts at around £40 for one axle and about £90+ for front and rear together, depending on the vehicle and location. 888 confirms the price for your vehicle before booking.
You can, but you should not leave it. Poor alignment wears tyres unevenly, shortens their life and can make steering less precise. If the car pulls hard or feels unstable, have it checked straight away.
A sensible rule is to check every 6,000 miles or every six months. Also book one after hitting a kerb or pothole, fitting new tyres or replacing suspension parts.
It is not compulsory, but it is a good idea. New tyres wear unevenly if the alignment is out, so checking at fitting protects them from the start.
Look for the car pulling to one side, an off-centre steering wheel, uneven tyre wear or vague steering. There is no dashboard warning light for alignment, so these symptoms are the main clues.
Many front-wheel-drive cars can be aligned at the front axle, while four-wheel-drive vehicles and cars with adjustable rear suspension typically need a four-wheel alignment. The technician confirms what your vehicle requires.
