Ensure smooth, safe, and efficient driving with proper 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.
Signs That Your Wheels Are Misaligned
Recognizing the signs of misalignment early can prevent costly repairs. Common symptoms include:
- Tires Wearing Unevenly: Uneven wear on the inner or outer edges of your tires is a clear sign of misalignment.
- Steering Wheel Drifting: A steering wheel that pulls to one side while centered indicates a possible alignment problem.
- Vibrations: If you feel vibrations in your steering wheel or the whole car, misalignment is likely.
- Off-Center Steering Wheel: Your steering wheel may not return to the center position after a turn.

- Longer Tire Life: Proper alignment helps ensure even tire wear, extending their lifespan and saving you money.
- Enhanced Fuel Efficiency: Proper alignment reduces rolling resistance, improving gas mileage.
