Wheel Alignment

Your vehicle is properly aligned when all suspension and steering components are sound and when the tire and wheel assemblies are running straight and true. Proper alignment is necessary for even tread wear and precise steering. Uneven front-or rear-tire wear, or changes in your vehicle's handling or steering response (i.e. pulling to one side) can indicate misalignment. Your vehicle may need a 'front-end' alignment or a 'four-wheel' alignment, depending on the symptoms you are experiencing.

It’s common to ask, ‘How Much is an Alignment?’, but the moderate cost of having your vehicle aligned can more than pay for itself in tire mileage, performance and comfort. Our locations can provide expert alignment should your vehicle need it.

At our locations, we can perform both a 'front-end' alignment or a 'four-wheel' alignment, depending on the symptoms you may be experiencing when driving your vehicle.

Your alignment should be checked annually, or whenever you notice abnormal tire wear, a crooked steering wheel, or a drift in the steering system.

Tire balancing (or wheel balancing) and tire alignment are two different services that can fix inconsistencies your vehicle develops over time. Tire balancing corrects an unevenness in your tires, which is commonly caused over time by tread wear. Tire balance and rotation is recommended every 3,000-6,000 miles or 6 months—or when you experience unusual vibration.

Tire alignment corrects the angle of your wheels by adjusting your vehicle’s suspension. This helps maintain proper tread wear and precise steering. Your tire alignment should be checked annually, or when you notice abnormal tire wear, a crooked steering wheel, or a drift in the steering system.

A wheel alignment adjusts your vehicle's suspension – not the tires or wheels themselves — to impact the angles at which your tires make contact with the road. This helps to ensure proper tread wear and precise steering.
