Clayton’s CAR CARE Tips
If you sense your car drifts or pulls to one side, you could have a wheel alignment problem.
The alignment of your vehicle’s wheels can affect the way it handles. Your car may drive fine, but when you look at your tires, you may notice that they are wearing. Your steering wheel could also feel not centred. Our team of professionals can align your wheels by placing your vehicle on a wheel alignment machine. This machine uses laser guided measurements to allow our mechanic to set and adjust the suspension components back to the factory specifications. You can prevent the impact of wear and tear on your tires, reduce pulling and feel confident in a safer drive.
Tire Shop: MON - SAT 7:30-5:30
Mechanical Shop: MON-FRI 8-5
