Wheel Alignment
Wheel Alignment about Wheel Alignment
Proper wheel alignment is an important, although often overlooked part of your vehicle’s regular maintenance. Without proper alignment, tires will wear much faster and end up costing you unnecessary money to replace. Our free alignment check includes a visual inspection of the steering and suspension system, tire pressure and alignment angle.
During a vehicle's alignment service, adjustments are made to the camber, caster, and toe. These are negligible differences in your car or truck's wheel positioning relative to the road. However minor, every adjustment has the ability to make marked improvements in your vehicle's ride and comfort.
Getting regular wheel alignment service is one of the best things you can do for your vehicle because the benefits include:
- Enhanced fuel efficiency (more miles per gallon)
- Even tread wear for longer tire life
- Better handling and steering
- Smoother, more comfortable ride
Here are some signs that you might need an alignment:
- Your ride feels bumpier than usual
- You feel your vehicle drifting or pulling to one side or the other
- Your tires are wearing unevenly
- You hear your tires squeal when turning
We recommend wheel alignment service every time you get new tires installed. If you aren’t sure if you need a wheel alignment or not, visit your nearest Big O Tires store, and we’ll perform a free Alignment Check.Read Less
