Wheel Alignment

Maintaining your car's wheel alignment reduces tire weak, improves fuel economy. handling, and increases driving enjoyment and safety.

Normal wear and road conditions can take their toll on our car's steering and suspension system, possibly throwing the alignment settings out of specifications. Ball joints, tie rods, steering arms, bushings and other suspension parts all wear gradually over time. Springs will gradually sag and age as miles accumulate. All of these will affect alignment angles and adjustments need to be made or components need to be replaced to restore optimum handling.

Have your car's alignment checked at least annually. Your technician will make adjustments to the camber, caster, toe and thrust angle, if needed. Have the alignment checked at the first sign of abnormal tire wear or improper vehicle handling. A wheel alignment is a good service to request as an "insurance policy" when you purchase a set of new tires.
Regular alignment checks are your best way to maximize tire life and ensure that your car performs on the road as originally designed.
