Wheel Alignments for Commercial Vehicles

When South End Tirecraft Truck Centre Parkhill performs a wheel alignment on your commercial vehicle or your fleet of vehicles, they will be resetting the angles of your wheels to your vehicle manufacturer’s original specifications. They will adjust the castor angle, the camber anger, and the toe of your vehicle’s tires.

Why Are Wheel Alignments Important for Your Commercial Vehicle?

When wheels are correctly aligned, they will be flat on the road and properly pointed. Taking the time to have your wheels aligned results in reduced operational costs through:

• More even tire wear
• Reduced part wear in your vehicle’s front end suspension
• Increased drivability
• Overall safer operation of your vehicle

Ensuring correct toe alignment on your commercial vehicle—in conjunction with proper air pressure and axle alignment—can help prevent 95% of irregular tire wear.

When Commercial Vehicles Need Wheel Alignments

There are several telltale signs that your commercial vehicle may require a wheel alignment. These include:

• Uneven tread wear in your tires (including, but not limited to cupping, wear on a single side, etc.)
• Premature tread wear in your tires
• Pulling from one side to the other while driving your vehicle
• Vibration in your steering wheel
• An off-centre steering wheel while driving in a straight line

In addition, your commercial vehicle should undergo a wheel alignment if it has:

• Recently had its tires changed
• Been involved in an accident or collision
• Had work done on its steering or suspension

Regardless of whether or not your commercial vehicle is showing symptoms or meets the above criteria, we recommend having its wheels aligned every 20,000km to 40,000km. Failure to have your wheels properly aligned can result in severe tire damage, as well as more expensive repairs down the line.
