Our Services
TYRE FITTING & BALANCING
We fit and balance all tyres. Why balance? When the tire
rotates, asymmetries of mass may cause the wheel to hop or wobble,
which can cause ride disturbances, usually vertical and lateral
vibrations. It can also result in a wobbling of the steering wheel
or of the entire vehicle. The ride disturbance, due to unbalance,
usually increases with speed. When tires are fitted to wheels
at the point of sale, they are measured, and correction weights are
applied to counteract the combined effect of the tire and wheel
unbalance.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Wheel alignment sometimes referred to as
tracking, is part of standard car maintenance
that consists of adjusting the angles of the wheels so that
they are set to the car maker's specification. The purpose of these
adjustments is to reduce tyre wear, and to ensure
that vehicle travel is straight and true (without "pulling" to one
side).
BRAKE PADS
We supply and fit brake pads for all vehicle makes and
models.
SUSPENSION FITTING
We fit suspension for all vehicle makes and
models. Suspension systems serve a dual purpose -
contributing to the car's roadholding/handling and
braking for good active safety and driving pleasure, and
keeping vehicle occupants comfortable and reasonably well isolated
from road noise, bumps, and vibrations,etc. It is
important for the suspension to keep the road wheel in contact with
the road surface as much as possible, because all the forces acting
on the vehicle do so through the contact patches of the tires. The
suspension also protects the vehicle itself and any cargo or
luggage from damage and wear.
ON-SITE TRUCK TYRE FITTING
We offer an on-site tyre fiiting service to help get you
