  • Alignment is done on the ur car. They check ur chamber see if got go out of alignment and adjust it back.
  • For wheels it is balancing, wheels are put on a machine and they uses 5g metal piece to stick on ur rim so that when the tire rotate. It will be balance.
  • Rotations are done front rear or rear to cross front, this is to get the most out of ur tyres. So to prevent the front botak 1st or back botak 1st. All 4 tyres will wear evenly.

Autosaver (Toh Guan) - price still remains @ S$20 (Nov 2011) for front to back rotation & 4 wheels balancing.

 

Very good service, highly recommended. Full nitrogen air pump for 4 wheels - released all existing normal air from the tyres & then pump full nitrogen into them.

 

Tightening of nuts was done using drill turn & final turn using torque wrench.

 

30mins job. Please call before going over as they might be able to entertain you if their jobs are filled for the day.

I went to Autobacs this evening as tyre suddenly vibrated on highway.

 

Thought I drove over a nail but it was a weight when fell off.

 

Darn expensive, S$30 for rotation + 2 wheel balance.

 

Rotation + 4 wheel balance cost $50 !! [knife] [knife]

Hi guys lets gather a list of shops that do tyres rotation at a relatively cheap price. Yesterday I went to Southern Tyre Co at Woodlands Rd. Their service is good but the price is rather steep. Anyway I had done my rear/front rotation there, now looking for other shops that provide this service at a cheaper price. Come come bros lets contribute [laugh] I will compile all the price in 1st post.

 

*If there are shops that if you change tyres there and they will provide free rotation also list them down.

 

Southern Tyre Co. (Woodlands Rd)

Normal Rear front Rotation - $30

Cross Rotation - $60

No mention if any wheels alignment needed

No mention if any wheels balancing needed

Can DIY wheels rotation in less than the time is takes to drive to the workshop. Why bother to drive there?

I thought most AD service centres will automatically do the rotation & alignment.

yah u r right, JB is cheap cheap as the labour cost there is cheap. Maybe to cut down cost, perhaps your employer can shift your job to overseas and make yourself redundant bah....hehehe...custom toll fee is going to increase....if u factor in this cost, i dun think is cheap cheap anymore.....

no you wait long long... its only upon request and will be chargeable.

 

For me Regent Motors has done rotation at every 10k servicing so far.

Alignment depends. But I can ask my SE to help me FOC I think.

 

Just rotation is good enough unless the steering is off by much.
