Formula One Autocentres offers 4-wheel alignment with Hunter

Formula One Autocentres has announced that it is offering four wheel alignment service, using leading alignment machinery brand Hunter’s products, supplied by their UK distributor Pro-Align, at 13 of its branches, based mainly in the Midlands and the South of England. F1 Autocentres says it uses “world-leading Hunter garage alignment equipment” because they offer “accurate four wheel diagnosis and re-alignment, including personalised print out showing before and after measurements.”

Four wheel alignment’s benefits, according to the fast-fit group include reduced all-round tyre wear, reduced fuel consumption and increased safety. According to a statement, “58 per cent of cars suffer misalignments on the rear wheels. As a standard alignment test covers front wheels only, this can leave rear wheel alignment problems unexpected and unsolved.” Having all four tyres properly aligned could help reduce fuel consumption, prolong the life of tyres, and therefore save money. The proper alignment of all four wheels can also help to maintain optimum all-round tyre performance, helping to tighten vehicle handling and thus increasing the safety of the vehicle.
