What is wheel alignment and what does it do?

[OLeilani]

Wheel alignment refers to adjusting the relative position and angle between the four wheels, steering mechanism, and front and rear axles of the vehicle, as specified by the manufacturer. If a car is driven for a long time in poor road conditions or if the tires or chassis are impacted, this relative position can become misaligned, affecting the car's driving performance and necessitating a wheel alignment. The following are the functions of wheel alignment: 1. Wheel alignment helps the car maintain stable straight-line driving without deviation, ensuring driving safety; 2. It keeps the tires and the car body at the optimal angle, preventing uneven tire wear; 3. It reduces wear between the tires and steering components during driving, extending the service life of the tires.
