Purpose
Measure from the wheel-hub reference when the rim or normal target mounting would compromise diagnostic work.
How it works
What the software does.
A compatible hub adapter carries the alignment target directly from the hub flange. The measurement therefore references hub geometry rather than the wheel rim and clamp interface.
When to use
Where it fits in the workflow.
Use for supported diagnostic work involving suspected bent rims, collision repair or a need to separate wheel condition from suspension and chassis geometry.
Benefits
Practical value in the alignment bay.
- Reduces the influence of rim damage on the target reference
- Helps separate wheel-related error from vehicle geometry
- Supports specialist diagnostic and verification work
Availability
Configuration limitation.
Requires compatible hub adapters, targets and an approved procedure. Wheel removal and all fastening steps must follow the applicable service instructions.
