When the wheels are not properly aligned, the vehicle can swerve, the tires wear unevenly and fuel efficiency is reduced. At Pneumàtics Pirineu we adjust the angle of the wheels according to the manufacturer's specifications, using high-precision measuring equipment.

We recommend reviewing the alignment:

After changing tires
If the vehicle does not maintain a straight path
If the steering wheel is not centered
After a hit with a curb or a jolt
When irregular tire wear is detected

With more than 50 years of experience, we help you improve control and safety, optimize consumption and extend the life of your tires.
