If you’re searching for a wheel alignment in Stoke-on-Trent, you may already know that correctly aligned wheels are absolutely essential for safe and comfortable driving.

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.

"I broke down on a busy road, had my child in the car with me. I was able to contact Motor Clinic Longton recovery, who were extremely friendly and helpful. We were picked up and taken home within 20 minutes of the call. Very reasonable charge for the service. After the weekend i was able to get the car recovered from my house again and a couple of days later ive collected my car and the work is complete. Never been so happy to drive it again. Andy and all the team thank you so much. Thank you so much Motor Clinic. I would definitely recommend this place."
