Proper wheel alignment is crucial for getting the most tread wear and performance from your tires. Wheel alignments adjust a vehicle’s suspension so the wheels are positioned correctly relative to the vehicle’s frame.This adjustment maximizes the life of your tires and prevents your car from veering left or right when traveling on a straight level road.

Vehicles become unaligned when the suspension gets knocked from of its specified location. Alignment problems can be caused by suspension wear due to age, potholes, curbs or any suspension jarring. If a vehicle has been lifted or lowered, it may also need an alignment.

*Signs you might need an alignment:

  • Your car pulls or drifts away from a straight line
  • You have rapid or uneven tire wear
  • The spokes of your steering wheel are off to one side while driving on a straight and level road
