Don't lose out on hidden alignment opportunities
Tire wear alone cannot predict wheel alignment
In a 100,000 vehicle study, irregular tire wear is present only 13% of the time. If you check only tire wear and base your alignment assumptions on that, you are missing a wealth of opportunities from vehicles that are out-of-alignment but show regular tire wear.
Quick Check® Drive checks every vehicle's alignment.
If you're not checking camber, you're missing out on profitable services
Unlike Quick Check® Drive, many systems do not measure camber. Of the total vehicles that arrive out-of-alignment, vehicles with only camber out account for roughly a third of that total.
Quick Check® Drive checks every vehicle's camber.
Did you know?
Alignment issues are the leading cause of tire wear
Toe and camber misalignments can cause irregular tire wear. Correcting a vehicle's alignment early can protect the tire investment.
Automatic results
Provide complete customer transparency with Flightboard™ results display
Results visible to all
Customers see real-time results in waiting area or service drive
Go beyond paper
Digital presentations inform customer before review with technician or advisor
Did you know?
Tire wear does not equal misalignment
While misalignment may cause irregular tire wear, tire wear alone is a poor indicator of alignment condition.
Extensive support
Backed by Hunter’s superior OEM spec database
Hunter’s patented Quick Check Drive technology is the only touchless alignment check with the proven accuracy and reliability necessary to earn over 20 original equipment manufacturer approvals.

Automatic tread depth
Edge to edge results in the power of 3D
- Three-dimensional tread map provides insights beyond a single line scan
- Measures wet and dirty tires to maximize uptime and opportunities
- Color-coded results clearly relay good, marginal or bad treads
Measuring tire tread edge wear is critical to proactive tire safety
A bald tire edge will affect wet weather traction, resulting in longer stopping distances and poor handling. If the edge portion of the contact patch has no tread, it cannot shed water.
Most edge wear occurs on the inner edge of the tire and is difficult to detect using the visual inspection methods.
Edge-to-edge insights
Measuring edge wear is critical to proactive tire safety
Most edge wear occurs on a tire's inner edge, hidden from visual inspection
When a vehicle is moving, the tire's contact patch expands to include the tire's edge
If the edge portion of the contact patch has no tread, it cannot shed water
Excessive edge wear hurts wet weather traction, stopping distance and handling
Today's new tires provide great wet weather handling
But if your tires are worn or bald, they are rolling on water
In emergencies, hitting the brakes should mean STOP
Worn tires mean increased stopping distances - up to 10 car lengths vs new
Catch misalignment before your tires do
In a 25,000 vehicle study, 51% of all vehicles had no irregular tire wear, but needed an alignment. Only 10% had irregular wear and needed an alignment.
