Tires are an integral part of both the steering and suspension systems, which work together to maximize tire contact with the road. But daily driving takes its toll on these systems, and the components gradually fall out of alignment. Signs that it’s time for a realignment range from obvious to subtle, but it’s important to maintain proper alignment for safety, comfort and prolonged tire life.

Alignment plays a crucial role in safety and tire performance. Tires are an integral part of both suspension and steering systems, and all work together to maintain maximum tire contact with the road. But the daily bumps and bangs of rough roads, potholes and uneven surfaces gradually knock these components out of alignment, leading to uneven tire wear, inaccurate and unsafe handling, and decreased comfort.

Signs that your vehicle may be out of alignment are both obvious and subtle. Obvious signs include your vehicle pulling to one side, rapid or uneven tire wear, and a steering wheel that shakes or is off-center while driving straight. More subtle clues include reduced fuel economy. To prolong tire life and alignment, it helps to maintain proper tire pressure, avoid potholes, and avoid aggressive turning or cornering.
