What Does a Wheel Alignment Do?

During a wheel alignment, our experts will measure the current angles of all four wheels and compare them to manufacturer specifications. We'll then re-align the wheels if they're not at the specified angles. 

What is Involved in a Wheel Alignment?

• Inspection of the steering and suspension components
• Assessment of the tires for dimension, tire pressure, and tread
• Comparison of your tire positioning to car manufacturer rules
• Adjustment of angles back to manufacturer specification

What Lead to Bad Wheel Alignment?

Your wheels may be taken out of alignment due to sudden contact with bumps, potholes, curbs, debris, and other terrain-related issues with the road. Your wheel alignment also changes slowly over time, so it's recommended to go in for routine alignment checks.

Signs You Need a Wheel Alignment Service

• Uneven or premature tire tread wear
• Pulling to a side when driving straight
• Vibration in the steering wheel
• Crooked steering wheel
• Reduction in fuel efficiency

How Long Does a Wheel Alignment Last?

Wheel alignments usually last for about 2 - 3 years, but they can be required sooner, depending on driving habits. Sudden impacts with potholes, curbs, or bumps can lead to misaligned wheels.
