Four-Wheel vs. Two-Wheel Alignment Service
As the names suggest, in four-wheel alignment all the four wheels are aligned, and in two-wheel alignment, only the front wheels are aligned. Four-wheel alignment service is needed for a vehicle with independent suspension. If you own a large SUV or pickup truck, your vehicle will likely need a two-wheel alignment service because this type of vehicle has a solid rear axle. However, if the rear axle has been damaged, it might require alignment too. Allow our certified technicians to guide you on the type of alignment service required by your vehicle.
- Two-Wheel Alignment - Also known as a front-end alignment, two-wheel alignment is generally performed on vehicles with a solid rear axle; it involves inspecting and adjusting the camber, toe, and caster angles on the front wheels.

- Four-Wheel Alignment - Vehicles with independent or semi-independent rear suspensions will need to have the camber, toe, and caster angles inspected and adjusted on all four wheels; this is also called an all-wheel alignment.

Why Do the Wheels Need Alignment?
Is your vehicle pulling to the left or right? Are the tires showing uneven tread wear? Is the steering wheel crooked when driving straight? Those are common signs of misaligned suspension, which can happen due to sudden jarring or heavy impact of hitting a curb, pothole, or other types of obstacles on the road. In some cases, wheel misalignment can happen due to regular wear and tear of the suspension components. The only reliable way to check for misalignment is through wheel alignment inspection service by certified technicians. At Volkswagen of Winchester, our certified technicians will use computerized technology to measure the suspension angles to determine if any of the wheels are misaligned.
