Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment ensures optimal tyre contact with the road by adjusting camber, toe, and caster angles. This service extends tyre life, improves fuel efficiency, and enhances vehicle stability. At Car Tyres and You, we use precision equipment to correct misalignment caused by potholes or wear, addressing symptoms like uneven tyre wear and steering pull. Our technicians in Melbourne's south-east perform full suspension checks before adjustments.

Puncture Repairs

We repair punctures using Australian Tyre Repair Standards-compliant methods, combining plugs and patches for durability. Our service includes damage assessment, tread shoulder repairs, and replacement advice for irreparable tyres. Using quality materials, we ensure safety and longevity, adhering to guidelines for puncture locations and sidewall damage. Emergency repairs are available at our Carnegie, Ormond, and Keilor Park locations.

Brake Diagnostics

Our brake inspections identify issues like uneven wear, pedal pressure changes, and vibration triggers. We assess disc/drum brake functionality, heat-related deterioration, and warning light diagnostics. Regular servicing prevents failures, ensuring compliance with manufacturer intervals. Melbourne drivers benefit from expert adjustments and part replacements to maintain stopping power and safety.

Suspension Maintenance

We service suspension components including struts, springs, and shock absorbers to maintain ride quality and safety. Our checks identify wear indicators like uneven tyre wear and steering instability. Following manufacturer guidelines, we recommend replacements every 20,000km. This service improves handling, reduces wear, and ensures compliance with Victorian roadworthiness standards.

Thanks Bill and team for a thorough service of our 13 y/o Merc C200k. It was reassuring you are familiar with this car and very easy process selecting which items we wanted attending to . The front end is now very positive again since you re-greased and adjusted the front wheel bearings and did a spot on wheel alignment. The brake pedal is nice and firm after the brake flush. The transmission service has restored nice smooth shifts and the new engine oil was right on the max mark. Highly recommend your services!

Great experience. Asked to do a road worthy and AC gas fill. Service was great. I especially appreciated it when they found an issue with one of their testing kits that they called us afterwards to let us know they want to re-check something at no cost to make sure on some issues. This re-check turned out to be a reduced repair requirement and cost... Thumbs up on that! Highly recommended.

Had a puncture in my Audi back tyre and brought my vehicle to this location in Carnegie to have it repaired. Although they didnt let me know the cost of the repair upfront, failed to explain what they were going to do to repair my tyre and didnt outline how long it would take - it only cost

Fantastic blokes. Only came in for a puncture, but was quick, easy and definitely affordable. Kind, courteous and up for a chat. 100% recommend.

Brett and the boys were polite and very helpful. They checked all my tyres for punctures as the warning sign was flashing, checked the pressure, gave me new caps for the tyres and finding nothing wrong - even tried to help me reset the warning signal. They didn't charge me a thing for their half hour of effort! Very impressed indeed! THANKYOU!!!

I had tyre replaced and alignment done a few months ago. The alignment was either not done or not properly done because a few months in and the tyres have worn out on the inside. The owner is a friendly guy and all but I'm a thousand bucks out of pocket.
