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.

"Top class team at tyre spot consett, specially Kai who went the extra mile and was totally honest and professional, giving us advice about the tyres that really needed changing and which not, saving us a bit of money too. You don't get to see that nowadays, other places would've told us change the 4 tyres straight away. Top man👌🏼Definitely made a new regular customer here."

"Took my car in to sort out my brakes, they were great and sorted everything out for me. I was nervous due to it being my first car, and having little knowledge of cars, but they answered all my questions and even gave some great advice. Highly recommend."
