GERALD's TIRES & BRAKES

"It's Always a Great Day at Gerald's Tires & Brakes"
Home | Alignment

THE PROCEDURE

 
First, we test drive the vehicle to make sure there isn't anything being missed in the customer's description of the problem.
 
Next, we will check the air pressure and tire quality of all four tires. Low air pressure and worn tires can cause serious pulling, wear and handling problems.
 
After inspecting the vehicles for worn parts we mount and compensate the sensors of the alignment machine (see above picture). Compensating the sensors shows the computer any bend or warp in a rim. Once the computer can see the warp it can mathematically compensate for the warp thereby bypassing any possible error in the final reading.
 
Finally, once the final reading is taken the car's needed adjustments are made.
