Iridium also offers a 4-wheel laser alignment service using professional Supertracker™ equipment to correct any missalignment of your steering or rear wheel geometry.
Having your wheel alignment checked & set regularly improves the vehicle safety & reduces tyre wear & hence costs. With the current poor condition of most UK roads, with potholes & speed bumps everywhere, it doesnt take long for your steering geometry to take a pounding & become out of alignment.
Incorrect wheel alignment (tracking) is one of the main reasons for premature tyre wear on vehicles.
The most common signs of incorrect wheel alignment are usually seen
as excessive wear to either the inner or outer edges of the tyres.
This is caused by the tyres scrubbing against the road surface as
they rotate. This scrubbing on the road surface results in irregular
wear and a tendency for the vehicle to pull to one side. It can also
have a detrimental effect on vehicle fuel consumption due to the increased
rolling resistance of the incorrectly aligned wheels.
