What Is 4 Wheel Geometry?

You have heard of Wheel alignment, or tracking, which is the process of setting a vehicle's wheels to the position outlined by the manufacturer's specifications. You probably don't give it much thought, especially in the context of performance. Why would you when horsepower has become so cheap and easy to access. Wheel alignments? Those are for keeping your tires from wearing out, not adding performance, right?

Vehicle Geometry is, essentially, the same thing. But we prefer to use the term to describe something altogether different than what you can expect from your local Quickfit. Rather than using factory specifications, a geometry setup applies custom suspension settings designed to enhance your vehicle’s handling and performance characteristics.

What It Means To Us

Here, at Motorsport and Performance, we strive to provide the perfect suspension setup for you and your vehicle's proposed application. To achieve this, we pool our experience gleaned from motorsport, tuition, and technology to enhance and improve your car's handling, regardless of what you drive and why. RWD race car, 4WD rally car, front-wheel drive road car, Ferrari or Fiesta, Drifting or Drag Racing we can make you faster and better with more grip, more control and more feedback.

There’s a lot to be said for using string to carry out an alignment. Accurate and mobile, but also slow. These days, 3D camera alignment systems have caught up and provide equally accurate results more consistently and in less time.

We opted to put down the tape measure and invest in John Bean V2200 wheel alignment technology. The V2200 offers the latest, highly accurate camera system technology, which uses a series of high-definition imaging sensors and smaller, lighter XD targets that attach directly to the wheel to accurately measure all alignment angles on your vehicle. This new equipment has allowed us to provide a better service to our customers, giving us more time to focus on the geometry setup and getting it right.
