Wheel Alignment Benefits: Consequences

Wheel alignment is one of the most important vehicle maintenance services that promote the best driving experience. Wheel alignment maintenance is also necessary to prevent the consequences of bad wheel angles. Here is a summary of the wheel alignment service benefits vs the consequences of putting it off:

Vehicle naturally tracks straight: veering toward the side of the road, fighting the wheel
The steering wheel is centered: crooked steering wheel while driving straight
Even tire wear with maximum life: rapid tire wear with shorter life
Better safety: compromised safety

Wheel Alignment Defined

Wheels need to point straight and perpendicular to the road for the best results. Wheel alignment services ensure this condition by routinely measuring and adjusting wheel angles called the camber, caster, and toe. Vehicles with wheel alignment at specifications will naturally track straight with optimal traction. The issue with wheel alignment is that it moves out of specifications from suspension/steering component loosening with enough miles or in a single driving event such as hitting a large pothole.

Wheel Alignment Checks

Wheel alignment checks are recommended annually to detect and prevent bad wheel angles from causing tire-related problems. Wheel alignment checks are also a good idea after driving incidents known to knock wheel angles out of specifications, such as hitting large potholes. The ideal wheel alignment maintenance plan includes routine wheel alignment checks every year and corrective wheel alignment service as needed when the camber, caster, and toe-in are not at specifications.
