Visual Alignment Indicator™

Advantages of Visual Alignment Indicator™ (VAI™) for you

Vibrations in the steering wheel or free rolling steering wheels are a clear indicator that the vehicle’s wheel alignment must be checked. However, small wheel misalignments often remain unnoticed. This results in unnecessary costs due to wear and tear of the tyres, damage to the casing and increased fuel consumption. This can be avoided with our VAI™.

Vibrations in the steering wheel or free rolling steering wheels are clear indicators to the driver that the vehicle’s wheel alignment must be checked.

This can be avoided with VAI™ from Continental.

The function of the VAI™

The innovative VAI technology from Continental helps you to achieve the lowest overall driving costs.

As easy as it is efficient: as the tyre wears, the VAI indicators on the inside and outside shoulders of the tyres change. Simply comparing the two indicators will show whether the wheels are correctly aligned or not. In the case of uneven wear the wheel alignment should be checked and adjusted if required. Misaligned wheels not only impact on the service life of the tyres, but also increase fuel consumption. If the two indicators match, this shows the tyres are wearing evenly and the wheels are correctly aligned.
