The Importance of Wheel Alignment for Your Porsche
Porsche is renowned for meticulous engineering and sky-high performance standards; wheel alignment plays a crucial role in maintaining that precision.
If you neglect to periodically realign your wheels, your handling will suffer, your ride will roughen, and your chances of experiencing an accident increase. Bring your car to our Porsche center to have the wheels inspected and realigned by specialist professionals who live by the standards your luxury car requires.
The Importance of Wheel Alignment for Your Porsche
Accurate Steering
When you’re in control of as powerful a car as your Porsche, you want the steering to be spot on. But when wheels become misaligned by repeated knocks against potholes or curbs, they begin to point in slightly different directions. This impacts the steering system, causing the wheel to feel looser in your hands.
At its worst, misalignment can even push the steering wheel permanently off-center, making it hard to keep driving straight. Our technicians return all the wheels of your car to factory alignment as the Porsche engineers intended, granting you maximum control over your car once more.
Prevent Drifting
Wheels can become misaligned along three different angles: camber, toe, and caster. The toe angle, in particular, can prevent a car from following a perfectly straight line. Your car may even start drifting slightly to one side. Regular wheel realignment averts this worrying problem.
Better Tire Traction
The excellent tires of your Porsche are designed to grip the tarmac optimally when perfectly parrallel. If you allow them to become misaligned, you reduce their traction and heighten the risk of skids.
Longer Tire Lifespan
Misalignment is a leading cause of uneven tire wear, which is highly destructive for tires. By keeping your wheels properly positioned with regular inspections and alignments, you save money on new tires and also on the cost of repairs to the suspension and other connected car parts.
Smoother Driving
Porsche vehicles are a joy to drive. But the silky smooth handling and minimal vibrations of your luxury car will soon roughen with misaligned wheels. Keep your driving pleasure optimized with regular alignments.
Enhanced Aesthetics
As a proud Porsche owner, you also have one of the world’s most stunningly attractive vehicles. However, if the wheels become misaligned, the fine contours and curves of your car will be thrown off. The visual impact of crooked wheels can be quite unpleasant: one more reason to have them routinely aligned.
