Understanding Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment is not just about the wheels but also about the vehicle's overall performance. When the wheels are properly aligned, you experience smooth steering, improved gas mileage, and reduced tire wear. Our state-of-the-art computerized alignment equipment allows us to measure all alignment angles, including toe, camber, caster, and thrust angles.

• Toe is the tilted direction of your wheels away from one another from the front. This is a critical wearing angle for your tires.
• Camber is the tilt of the wheels away from one another. This is also viewed from the front. If the wheels tilt in, this is negative camber. If they tilt out, it is positive camber.
• The caster is the angle of the steering axis. This is in relation to an imaginary vertical line through the wheel center. It is assessed from the side. A positive caster is when the line points to the rear. Anything tilted forward is a negative caster. A caster angle can help stabilize your steering.
• The thrust angle is the relationship of all four wheels. It's compared to an imaginary line running bumper to bumper. The thrust line is the direction the rear wheels point. Thrust angles are correctable on vehicles with adjustable rear suspensions. If the car isn't adjustable, we can use the front wheel alignment to compensate.

Trust us to keep your vehicle running smoothly and efficiently. We'll assess the adjustable and non-adjustable angles of your wheels to get your wheels perfectly aligned once more.

Demystifying Wheel Balancing

Wheel balancing shouldn't be confused with wheel alignment. An unbalanced wheel can cause inconsistent tire wear and vibrations at certain speeds. The imbalance can be caused when one part of the wheel gets more wear and tear. This makes parts of the wheel heavier, which affects the balance.

We use measured lead weights to balance your wheels perfectly, reducing the friction and heat exposure on your tires. It's a simple procedure that can dramatically improve your driving experience. If you've noticed a scalloped wear pattern on your tires or vibrations in your steering wheel, seat, or floorboard, it might be time for a wheel balance check.
