Achieve safer, smoother, and more efficient driving with correct wheel alignment.
What Is Wheel Alignment and Why Is It Important?
Wheel alignment refers to adjusting the angles of your car’s wheels to meet the manufacturer's specifications. Correct wheel alignment ensures your tires last longer, improves vehicle handling, and provides a safer driving experience.
Misaligned wheels can lead to uneven tire wear, decreased fuel efficiency, and a less comfortable ride, making regular alignment checks a vital part of car maintenance.
Symptoms of Misaligned Wheels
Identifying the early symptoms of misalignment can help avoid expensive fixes. Keep an eye out for these common signs:
- Irregular Tire Wear: Look for signs of uneven wear on the inner or outer edges of your tires.
- Steering Wheel Pulling: A steering wheel that pulls to one side while centered indicates a possible alignment problem.
- Steering Wheel Vibrations: You may experience vibrations in your steering wheel or car due to misalignment.
- Misaligned Steering Wheel: When your steering wheel doesn’t center properly after a turn, it's a sign of misalignment.

- Longer Tire Life: Even alignment prevents uneven tire wear, saving you money on replacements.
