What is a Wheel Alignment?
A wheel alignment precisely adjusts the angles of your vehicle's wheels to ensure they are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other. This ensures optimal tire contact with the road, improving vehicle performance, handling, and increases safety. Whether you drive a hatchback, sedan, SUV, Minivan, or truck, your wheels are one of the most important parts of your vehicle. A wheel alignment service is essential for safety and performance.
Benefits of a Wheel Alignment Service
- Improved Handling: When tires are aligned correctly, they provide smoother driving and turning.
- Extended Tire Life: Correct alignment prevents uneven tire wear, resulting in longer tire life and enhance performance.
- Improved Fuel Efficiency: Proper wheel alignment isn't just about steering—it's about engine performance and efficiency too. Improper wheel alignment takes more energy from the engine due to resistance. Crooked wheels don’t steer correctly, and the engine is forced to work harder. Less strain on the engine equals money savings at the gas pump.
- Enhanced Safety: Safety is our top priority. Proper wheel alignment contributes to better handling and braking, providing you with a safer driving experience.
How to Know if Your Vehicle Needs a Wheel Alignment
- Uneven Tire Tread Wear: Poor wheel alignment leaves visible signs on your tire treads. Keep an eye out for irregular tire wear patterns like thinning on the edge of the tire and not in a uniform manner.
- Vehicle Pulling: When wheels are mis-aligned you may feel the vehicle pulling to the right or left. In poor weather this can cause a loss of control when driving. Make sure to bring your car to Pride Auto Care for a FREE alignment check.
- Off-Center Steering Wheel: As your steering wheel turns, if it seems off center or turns on a tilted curve, it can be a sign your car, truck, or SUV needs an alignment.
