What is Wheel Alignment?

A wheel alignment is a service done to return the position of your wheels to manufacturer specification. This is done by adjusting the camber, toe, and caster angles.

How is Wheel Alignment Done?

During a wheel alignment, our expert service technicians will measure the current angles of your vehicle's wheels by using specialized measurement tools. We'll then compare it to your manufacturer's requirements and adjust it accordingly.

Why Do You Need Wheel Alignment?

Wheel alignments are essential in protecting your engine from additional stress and preserving your tire's tread. Driving with misaligned wheels will lower your vehicle's fuel efficiency and negatively affect your car's handling.

What Leads to Wheels Going Out of Alignment?

Over regular use, your wheel's angles will naturally change. Sudden changes, however, can be caused by sudden impacts of your tires with potholes, speedbumps, curbs, or other debris on the road. 

How Do You Know if You Messed Up Your Alignment?

• Uneven Tire Tread Wear
• Pulling to One Side When Driving Straight
• Vibrations When Driving Straight
• Crooked Steering Wheel When Driving Straight

Does an Alignment Fix Vibration?

Since a common sign of misaligned wheels is vibration when driving, getting a wheel alignment will help alleviate this issue. If you're experiencing serious issues, schedule an alignment check. 

Do I Need a Two-Wheel or Four-Wheel Alignment?

Cars usually require a two-wheel alignment as they typically have a solid rear axle preventing misalignment. If you have a vehicle that is an all-wheel-drive with independent suspensions, then you'll require a four-wheel alignment.
