For most transport operations, fuel consumption and tyre wear are a large part of operating costs. If the truck wheels are misaligned it can have an adverse effect on both tyre wear and fuel consumption.

When truck wheels are aligned correctly, as well as fuel and tyre benefits emissions are reduced, there is less wear and tear on mechanical components, drivers report reduced fatigue and tyres are less likely to overheat.

With increased fuel and tyre costs, Haweka says you need to make every mile count, and proper wheel alignment is crucial in that respect.
