In other words, getting your car’s wheels aligned means a more efficient and safe driving experience for you.
The Importance of Proper Wheel Alignment & Balancing

Cost: Well-aligned wheels will ensure the tyres stay in good condition for quite a long time. Misaligned wheels cause more resistance between the road and the tyres, in turn wearing out the car tyres much quicker. Bald tyres are dangerous to be driven on so you would have to replace them with new tyres. On the other hand, investing in regular wheel alignment services is much cheaper than having to replace the car tyres altogether. A tyre’s warranty usually covers any manufacturing defects in the tyre. However, that does not include maintaining the tyre in a poor condition. Hence, it is wise to get wheels aligned by the experts at Dusting Automotive to keep your tyres in good condition.
Fuel efficiency: Unaligned wheels cause uneven pressure on the car’s tyres, which result in them pushing against each other. This results in uneven friction between the tyre and the road, increasing the resistance against the road. More fuel is burnt in such situations to keep the car functioning and moving. Well-aligned car wheels ensure less road resistance and saves fuel and money.
Functionality: A car that does not have its wheels aligned results in a significant strain on the car’s internal system. For instance, the steering system of the car is skewed as misaligned wheels increase the likelihood of pulling to one side. It also results in uneven braking system as the brake shaft is not able to function at its optimum level. A car’s suspension consists of delicately balanced parts and needs to be perfect. Improper wheel alignment could damage the suspension system, which can be quite costly to replace.
Safety: Driving on different surfaces in varying conditions, such as an icy or wet road, can be quite a task and extremely risky. Faulty wheel alignment can shoot up this risk factor. For the safety of yourself and your loved ones, its best to ensure that you get the best wheel alignment from experts at Dusting Automotive in Melbourne.
