Steering, handling, and tire wear

Wheel Alignment

If your vehicle pulls, the steering wheel sits off-center, or the tires are wearing unevenly, an alignment check can identify whether the wheel angles need correction.

Vehicle receiving a wheel alignment

When to have alignment checked

Alignment can change after impacts, suspension work, or normal road use. Symptoms are useful clues, but an inspection is the way to determine what the vehicle needs.

Vehicle pulls

A vehicle that consistently drifts or pulls may need its alignment or related components checked.

Uneven tire wear

Wear concentrated on one edge or an unusual wear pattern can point to an alignment concern.

Off-center steering

A steering wheel that is not centered while driving straight is another reason to schedule a check.
