Wheel Alignment
State-of-the-art 3D laser wheel alignment for precision handling and tyre protection.
Service Overview
Even minor impacts with curbs or road potholes can knock your vehicle's steering geometry out of alignment by fractions of a degree. This causes premature tyre scrubbing, increased fuel consumption, and dangerous vehicle pulling at highway speeds. Star Motorworks uses ultra-precise 3D digital camera laser alignment racks in Pakenham, Clyde North, and Cranbourne West to restore factory camber, caster, and toe specifications across all four wheels.
3D Laser Wheel Geometry Calibration
Adjusting the inward or outward vertical tilt of the tyres to maximize the tyre contact patch during cornering and prevent severe shoulder wear.
Calibrating the forward or backward steering axis tilt to ensure effortless straight-line tracking and positive steering wheel self-centering.
Setting exact parallel wheel alignment to eliminate tyre drag, lower rolling resistance, and prevent harsh tyre feathering across tread blocks.
Calibrating the vehicle's digital steering angle sensor (SAS) with our diagnostic scan tool to ensure stability control (ESP) operates accurately.

Signs Your Wheels Need Alignment
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my car need wheel alignment after getting new tyres?
New tyres don't fix misaligned suspension geometry. Aligning the wheels ensures your expensive new tyres wear evenly and deliver maximum grip from day one.
