Alignment FAQs
How long does a full alignment take?
Wheel alignments typically take one hour for both two-wheel and four-wheel drive vehicles. However, excessive wear and tear on suspension components like bushings, track rods, or the system itself can require replacements, extending the service time.
What happens if you wait too long for an alignment?
Tire alignment is crucial for maintaining optimal tire performance and lifespan. Even slight misalignments, undetectable to the naked eye but measurable in tenths of degrees or hundredths of inches, can lead to premature and uneven wear. As time passes, this wear becomes more pronounced, impacting both safety and fuel efficiency. To avoid these issues, regular alignment checks every 6,000 miles are recommended.
What is checked during an alignment?
Three crucial aspects are assessed during a tire alignment inspection: camber, toe, and caster. Camber refers to the angle formed by the vertical axis of the tire and a line perpendicular to the road surface, as viewed from the front. When the top of the tire tilts inwards, creating an "X" shape with the wheels, it's considered negative camber. This can increase wear on the tire's inner edge through increased friction.
Do I need an alignment after replacing tires?
The answer is yes! A proper wheel alignment ensures precise angles between wheels and the road, maximizing tire life, enhancing handling, and distributing wear evenly across the tread. This translates to better fuel efficiency, safer driving, and a more enjoyable ride.

Great shop, nice guys. Got my HPDE inspection done quickly and thoroughly. Peter C |
I took my European vehicle to them for the first time several months ago & they did a major job: replaced the water pump, "programed" a new battery someone else installed in my vehicle & checked the car overall. A few months have passed and my vehicle runs like new! My most recent visit a couple days ago from the time of this post was for an oil change. I was pleasantly surprised that they gave me a $25 discount on the oil change! According to their website, they are partners with several companies/groups. I found them on Beemer World. Let's just say, I'm planning to take another car to them to have a check engine light diagnostic test performed. I will let you know how that works out! Wanda Phillips |
