Frequently asked questions about wheel alignment

Look out for uneven tyre wear, your car pulling to one side, a crooked steering wheel, vibrations, or squealing tyres.

Yes, but it’s not safe. Bad alignment can lead to uneven tyre wear, lower fuel efficiency, and poor handling.

A typical alignment takes about an hour, but it might vary based on your vehicle and the service needed.

Definitely. Misaligned wheels can make your steering wheel or entire car shake, especially at higher speeds.

Check your alignment every 6,000 miles or every six months. Also, get it checked if you notice for signs of misalignment or after hitting a big pothole or curb.

Yes, it’s a good idea to align your wheels after installing new tyres to make sure they wear evenly and perform well.
