Wheel Alignment in Bude
Wheel Alignment by ETB Autocentres Bude
If you’re searching for a wheel alignment in Bude, you may already know that correctly aligned wheels are absolutely essential for safe and comfortable driving. But did you know that wheel alignment can also save you money in a couple of ways? Firstly, poorly aligned tyres wear out faster and need to be replaced more often. Secondly, they can also decrease fuel mileage by up to 10%, meaning you have to fill up more often.
The solution is to have your wheels properly aligned—and then keep them that way with an annual wheel alignment by ETB Autocentres Bude. Our highly skilled technicians use state-of-the-art technology to ensure your steering is centred and that all four wheels are parallel, sitting flat on the road.

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.
ETB Autocentres Bude customer reviews
"Always excellent service from Tracey and the team."
"Brilliantly helpful and friendly service. I was working in Bude and found I had a puncture. I needed urgent help and Tracey and Cain were fabulous and made sure that I could be back on the road very quickly so I could return home to Somerset. They were already busy but squeezed my car in so I didn't have to wait too long. Thank you so much! Life savers. Next time I'm working in Bude I'll bring you some cakes!"
"Great service fitted in after hitting pot hole Friendly efficient staff will be using again"
"Reception & the mechanics moved things around to fit me in within a couple of hours for 2x urgent tyre replacements as it was our last day of holiday and big drive back home - so grateful & very kind to do on such a busy Friday Highly recommend, very knowledgeable and helpful x Thank you all x"
"Super friendly and helpful - fitted in my MOT at short notice. Very professional! Highly recommend!"
"Great service and value for money as always. Highly recommended."
"A puncture wasn't the best thing to happen travelling home down the M5 to Bude yesterday evening. RAC plugged the tyre allowing a slow back road journey home. Called ETB this morning to enquire about a new tyre, within 45 minute the tyre had been fitted."
"I can’t thank Tracey and her team highly enough - had a problem with the suspension on my car that my regular garage couldn’t fix in time for an important journey. I was recommended to go to ETB who despite being very booked up asked me to leave the car and said they would get it done. Which they did and at exactly the same price if not a bit cheaper than where I usually go in Bude. First rate service. And definitely on my go to list now"
"Excellent, speedy service that got me out of a real jam....thanks!"
"On holiday in Bude and was nervous about my car overheating. Lovely receptionist who managed to fit us in. Definitely recommend these guys."
