At Peel Valley Tyres in Tamworth, we provide professional wheel alignment and balancing services to help you get the most out of your tyres and suspension. A properly aligned and balanced vehicle improves safety, handling and fuel economy—while reducing tyre wear and road noise.
Over time, potholes, kerbs and rough roads can throw your wheel alignment out. If your steering pulls to one side, or your tyres are wearing unevenly, it’s a sign your vehicle needs attention. Balancing, on the other hand, ensures your wheels spin evenly and don’t cause vibration at higher speeds.
Our technicians use accurate equipment to assess alignment angles and balance, making precise adjustments to ensure a smooth, safe ride. We recommend regular checks to protect your tyres and improve driving comfort.
For expert wheel alignment and balancing in Tamworth, call Peel Valley Tyres today on (02) 6765 6600. We’ll get your wheels sorted quickly and professionally.
Precise alignment for better handling
Smooth, balanced rides at every speed
Small Adjustments, Big Differences
Even slight misalignment or imbalance can affect how your vehicle feels on the road. That’s why we focus on getting the setup right every time. It’s not just about comfort, it’s about safety and tyre life too.
Here’s what we assess during the process:
- Tyre Wear: Uneven wear often signals misalignment or poor balance.
- Steering Response: Pulling, drifting or vague steering may mean the wheels aren’t aligned.
- Vehicle Vibration: Shaking through the steering wheel is usually caused by unbalanced wheels.
- Suspension Impact: Alignment angles can change with worn or replaced suspension parts.
- Tyre Longevity: Regular checks prevent premature wear and extend tyre life.
We’ll check your wheels, explain what’s needed and get it sorted with care. Drop in and let our team get you rolling smoothly again.
FAQ
What is the difference between wheel alignment and wheel balancing?
Wheel alignment adjusts the angles of the wheels so they meet the road correctly, affecting steering and tyre wear. Wheel balancing ensures each wheel and tyre spins evenly, preventing vibrations.
Alignment affects how the car drives, while balancing affects how it feels. Both are essential for safety, tyre longevity and smooth handling, especially after hitting potholes or replacing tyres.
How often should I get a wheel alignment?
It's recommended to check your wheel alignment at least once a year or every 10,000–15,000 km. You should also get it checked if you’ve hit a kerb, notice uneven tyre wear or the car pulls to one side.
Proper alignment helps extend tyre life, improves fuel efficiency and keeps your vehicle handling safely and predictably.
What are the signs my wheels are unbalanced?
Common signs include vibrations through the steering wheel, especially at higher speeds, and uneven tyre wear. You might also notice a slight wobble or noise while driving.
These symptoms occur when the weight around a tyre and wheel isn’t evenly distributed. Regular balancing improves ride comfort, helps protect suspension components and ensures safer, smoother driving.
