Useful alignment terminology & what it means
When researching wheel alignment there are several key-terms to look out for and come the day of your service, you might come across the following phrases. To make life a little easier we have compiled explanations for the following:
- Toe-in: This is where the front tyres are both angled inwards pointing forward.
- Toe-out: Used to describe front tyres angling outwardly
- Positive camber: Tyres are angled in at the point of contact with the road surface
- Negative camber: The tyre shows signed of being “splayed” outwards at the point of road contact
- At AutoTechnik we can help correct the above issues to ensure that your car not only performs at it’s best but to reduce the adverse effects that they can have on your tyres’ and components’ lifespan.
