TRUCK ALIGNMENT


Wheel alignment, also called car tracking, is a vital part of the smooth and safe running of your car.

Misalignment can occur as a result of hitting the kerb or a bump in the road and can have a detrimental effect on your wheel balance, grip and control and can also cause premature wear to your tyres.

WHEEL BALANCING


Tyre balance, also referred to as tire unbalance or imbalance, describes the distribution of mass within an automobile tire or the entire wheel (including the rim) to which it is attached.

When the wheel rotates, asymmetries of mass may cause it to hop or wobble, which can cause ride disturbances, usually vertical and lateral vibrations.

It can also result in a wobbling of the steering wheel or of the entire vehicle. The ride disturbance, due to unbalance, usually increases with speed.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT


Car batteries are something we all take for granted, we put the key in the ignition, turn it and in an instant it sparks our engine to life. But what happens when your car battery fails, when it's stone cold dead, your car is stuck outside your home or workplace and you're going nowhere?

Winter puts an additional strain on batteries, because the colder it gets the more power our engines need to get them started. Then there is the fact that lights, heaters, windscreen heaters, seat warmers and windscreen wipers are all putting extra demands on the battery.

A car battery usually only has a lifespan of around five years, but even relatively new ones can go wrong due to constant use of the heater, heated seats and lights. There are signs to look out for that indicate when a battery is getting weak and may need replacing, these include a sluggish starter motor when the ignition key is turned and headlights that dip when the engine speed drops.

Ballysimon Tyre Centre have a comprehensive range of batteries available to supply and fit, often within hours. The price you pay includes fitting, disposal of the old battery and VAT - and all our batteries come with a 3 year guarantee.

OIL CHANGES


Oil changes can be one of the most important parts of a vehicle service and should be done according to your vehicle manufacturers specifications. This is usually around every 15,000 miles.

It is vital that the correct oil for your car is used as using the wrong grade can seriously damage your engine and catalytic converter ect.

At Ballysimon Tyre Centre we guarantee to provide you with the best service possible and at the best possible price. 

LOCK NUT REMOVAL


Lock nut removal by Ballysimon Tyre Centre.

A lock nut is the nut on each wheel that can only be removed with a unique socket that acts as a key to secure your alloy wheels.

Sometimes people may misplace this key and this will result in the inability to remove the alloy from the car.

At Ballysimon Tyre Centre we specialise in the removal of these nuts without the key.

COMMERCIAL & PLANT TYRE SERVICE


Ballysimon Tyre Centre specialise in the replacement of commercial vehicles and plant machinery.

We can send a technician to your premises or out on site.

All of our tyre replacements come with new valves and balancing free of charge.

Sometimes it may be possible to repair a punctured tyre instead of replacing it saving you money.
