Laser alignment on state of the art gear. It pulls the steering straight, stops uneven tyre wear and gets the full life out of the tyres you paid for.
Alignment is the angle each wheel sits at relative to the road and to the other wheels. Out by a small amount and the tyre scrubs sideways every metre you drive, which quietly eats a set of tyres months before it should.
We set camber, caster and toe back to the manufacturer specification and centre the steering wheel, then show you the numbers before and after. It is the cheapest thing you can do to protect a new set of tyres.
All four corners measured and adjusted, which is what most modern cars need rather than a front-only set.
For vehicles where the rear is not adjustable. We still measure the rear, because it tells us what the front has to do.
Set back to manufacturer specification, or to suit a lift kit where one is fitted.
A straight wheel on a straight road. If yours sits off to one side, that is the alignment talking.
You see what it was and what it is now, so you can tell what you paid for.
Worn tie rod ends, ball joints and bushes will not hold an alignment, so we check them first and tell you what we find.
The car pulls to one side on a flat road. The steering wheel sits off centre when you are going straight. The tread is feathered or worn on one edge only. New tyres are wearing far quicker than they should.
Any one of those is worth a check. All of them together and you are already paying for it in tyre wear.
Kerbs and potholes are the obvious ones, and the hinterland has plenty of both. Corrugated dirt roads, heavy towing, a hard hit into a gutter and general wear in the steering and suspension all move things over time.
Fitting a lift kit or a lowering kit changes the geometry by design, so an alignment is part of that job rather than an extra. Same after any steering or suspension repair.

“Prompt, polite and efficient. A young apprentice did the job under the guidance of the owner. Good work culture equals good results equals happy customers.”
“These people are awesome and go the extra mile to assist. No job too hard and their price is cheaper than most big name tyre sellers.”
“Good honest answer, very reasonable price. I continue to visit these guys and highly recommend them to anyone.”
“I have 2 passenger cars, a truck and a horse gooseneck, and Landsborough Tyres are the ones I trust to look after my tyres and vehicles.”
A good rule is every 10,000km or once a year, and any time you fit new tyres, hit something hard, or have steering or suspension work done. If the car is pulling or the steering wheel is off centre, do not wait for the interval.
We are in Landsborough, a few minutes off the Bruce Highway, and we look after drivers from Beerwah, Maleny, Mooloolah Valley, Peachester, Glass House Mountains, Caloundra, Bald Knob, Mount Mellum and Diamond Valley, right across the Sunshine Coast hinterland.
