Wheel Alignment in Wellingborough

Wheel Alignment by Auto Spectrum

If you’re searching for a wheel alignment in Wellingborough, you may already know that correctly aligned wheels are absolutely essential for safe and comfortable driving. But did you know that wheel alignment can also save you money in a couple of ways? Firstly, poorly aligned tyres wear out faster and need to be replaced more often. Secondly, they can also decrease fuel mileage by up to 10%, meaning you have to fill up more often.

The solution is to have your wheels properly aligned—and then keep them that way with an annual wheel alignment by Auto Spectrum. Our highly skilled technicians use state-of-the-art technology to ensure your steering is centred and that all four wheels are parallel, sitting flat on the road.

Frequently asked questions

No, it's not the same.

Alignment involves setting the wheels on each axle in parallel, and the axles parallel to each other, adjusting wheel angles so that the car steering does not drift to one side, as well as ensuring driver comfort and good grip for the tyres, thus guaranteeing safety at the wheel.

Balancing is a mechanical process of adjusting the wheels to prevent vehicle vibration at any speed, no matter what type of driving is used.

The modern car is built for comfort, performance and handling. In order to achieve and maintain the best ride possible, the steering and suspension needs to be measured and adjusted within the motor manufacturer’s specifications. This can only be done by measuring all four wheels and having a proper full four wheel alignment measurement.

Wheel alignment can be affected by hitting the kurb or a large pothole in the road or travelling regularly on gravel roads. If alignment is out, it can cause excessive wear to your tyres and problems with steering or suspension.

"I simply have to give this garage a full five stars – I’d happily award it 100 stars if that were an option. As all other customers have mentioned, its strengths are plain for everyone to see. Their pricing is fair and transparent, with zero hidden charges. They will honestly explain every single fault your vehicle has, no beating around the bush. I’ve never come across such an outstanding garage anywhere. The staff treat every customer like a close friend, taking the time to walk you through everything that’s going on with your car. If you’re still struggling to find a reliable mechanic, take my word for it – you won’t regret choosing this place."

""Absolute lifesavers. After my timing chain snapped, I was expecting a massive headache and a permanent breakdown, but the team here made the repair process completely stress-free. They kept me updated with calls throughout the entire engine repair, showed me the damaged parts, and charged exactly what they quoted. Outstanding service and a highly skilled team. I won't take my car anywhere else in Northamptonshire!""

"I first had my car's AC regassed in mid-May and it was working well, but then it suddenly stopped cooling. I went back in July and was asked to come the following day, but because of my busy schedule I ended up getting quotes from a few other garages as well. Today I finally managed to leave my car with them, and I'm glad I did. They diagnosed the problem, fixed it properly, and charged a very reasonable price. Great service and excellent value for money—definitely a thumbs up! The only suggestion I'd make is to keep customers updated before carrying out any repairs. Since most of us don't know what's actually wrong with the car, it would be reassuring if the garage explained the fault, gave a quote, and asked for approval before fixing it, as I was initially told they would. Overall, I'm very happy with the repair, the price, and the service. I'd happily recommend them."
