Hi,
what's a reasonable price for wheel alignment on a 3 series bmw? I've seen all 4 wheels for £45+VAT. I think it's just the fronts which need the check but hey?

Has anyone ever had their wheels checked?

I had the front tracking done on my S60 Volvo for £25 at Tyretraders (Minworth, Bham) & the 4 wheel alignment was about £45 as you said.

As above less than £30 for fronts,, £50ish for all 4 wheels. More if lots of adjustments needed.

I had my Audi A8 front wheels tracked by Eden Tyres, who have branches all over the East Midlands. IIRC it was £25, and £29.95 for an MOT.
I take my TVR to a specialist who charges £90 for a full four wheel alignment and suspension checkover, but he's in Norfolk.

OP. it is helpful if you give more idea of where you are based - it will inspire people local to you to respond.

I got it done at the BMW specialist for £45. May as well get it done right rather than pay for a job that may not be as good. All 4 wheels. Car used to drift left a bit on perfectly flat surfaces. Now it's dead straight.
