Frequently asked questions
No, it's not the same.
Alignment involves setting the wheels on each axle in parallel, and the axles parallel to each other, adjusting wheel angles so that the car steering does not drift to one side, as well as ensuring driver comfort and good grip for the tyres, thus guaranteeing safety at the wheel.
Balancing is a mechanical process of adjusting the wheels to prevent vehicle vibration at any speed, no matter what type of driving is used.
The modern car is built for comfort, performance and handling. In order to achieve and maintain the best ride possible, the steering and suspension needs to be measured and adjusted within the motor manufacturer’s specifications. This can only be done by measuring all four wheels and having a proper full four wheel alignment measurement.
Wheel alignment can be affected by hitting the kurb or a large pothole in the road or travelling regularly on gravel roads. If alignment is out, it can cause excessive wear to your tyres and problems with steering or suspension.

"*Leaving this review on behalf of my partner who doesn’t have a Google account but wants to highlight how amazing A&A Tyres are* The team here have been amazing. I had a puncture last week and called ahead, they managed to fit me in and I was seen within 45 minutes, which was a great turnaround considering how busy they were. Unfortunately, I then had another puncture on a different tyre, and once again they fitted me in, checked everything over and sorted it within the hour, despite me arriving towards the end of the day and needing a new tyre fitted. The next morning I noticed it had gone down again, and they squeezed me in early so they could do a deeper inspection. They quickly found an issue with the valve and replaced it, again getting everything sorted in under an hour. The team were friendly, accommodating and really thorough in getting to the bottom of the issue, all while keeping turnaround times impressively quick. I honestly couldn’t recommend them more and would happily suggest them to anyone needing help with tyre issues."
