Proper wheel alignment allows your vehicle to function well and enables components to last longer. Specifically, wheel alignment refers to adjusting the major suspension angles: camber, caster, toe, and thrust. Accurate alignment helps you with steering and control. Also, it’s crucial to tire wear and stress on suspension parts. It’s a good idea to have our team perform a wheel alignment periodically, particularly when purchasing a new set of tires. In the meantime, you should schedule an appointment if you notice signs that could indicate that your automobile is out of alignment. For example, you may feel your car tugging to one side even when driving straight ahead. As a related issue, the steering wheel may not return to its center resting point. Another possible signal is vibration in the steering wheel. If you begin hearing a high-pitched or squealing sound continuously as you drive, it could result from the tires fighting to maintain traction. That’s telling and important because traction is negatively impacted when your auto is out of line. In fact, haphazard traction is the culprit behind uneven tire wear, a costly result of bad wheel alignment. When this occurs, you’ll see that some spots on your tread pattern are worn significantly more than others.
