What it is

About Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment is the adjustment of your wheel angles to the vehicle maker's specifications. The tires and wheels are not changed. The suspension is adjusted so the tires meet the road squarely, which AAA describes as optimizing the tire's contact with the road. Extreme Tires does four-wheel computerized alignment in the Sunrise bay, for South Florida customers.

Three angles matter. Bridgestone defines camber as the inward or outward tilt of the tire seen from the front, toe as how far the tires turn in or out seen from above, and caster as the steering axis angle seen from the side, which balances steering, stability and cornering.

Signs you need this

When to call us

Car pulls to one side
Steering wheel off-center on a straight road
Feathered or one-sided tire wear

Alignment problems show up in the tires first. Having the angles checked when you notice a pull or odd wear helps the next set last longer.

When you need it

Signs, mileage and age

AAA and Bridgestone list the same signs: the car pulling left or right, a steering wheel that sits off center on a straight road, uneven tire wear and steering wheel vibration.

Michelin recommends checking alignment when you put on new tires and after hitting potholes, curbs or road debris, and says an annual alignment check is a reasonable baseline for most drivers. NHTSA says an alignment maximizes the life of your tires.

AAA says lifting or lowering a vehicle, worn suspension parts and aggressive driving can also knock alignment out. Worn parts can keep an alignment from holding, which is why our suspension and lift kit work ends with an alignment check.

Step by step

What happens in the Sunrise bay

Put the vehicle on the alignment rack and attach sensors to each wheel.
Measure camber, caster and toe at all four wheels and print the before readings.
Check the steering and suspension parts for looseness or wear that would stop an adjustment from holding.
Adjust each angle to factory specification.
Center the steering wheel.
Print the after readings and go through the results with you.

Straight pricing

From $99 four wheels

That is a real starting price, not a teaser. What you actually pay depends on your vehicle and what the job needs. We confirm the total with you before any tool comes out, and the price we quote is the price you pay.

What changes the price

The from price covers an alignment of all four wheels.
Adjustability. Some vehicles, especially lifted or lowered ones, need extra parts such as adjustable arms or cam bolts to bring the angles back into range.
Worn or bent parts. A worn tie rod or a bent arm has to be replaced before the settings will hold, and that is separate repair work.
Rusted or seized adjusters. Older vehicles can take extra time at the adjusters.

Questions, answered

Wheel Alignment: common questions

How often should I get a wheel alignment?

Michelin says an annual check is a reasonable baseline for most drivers. Check sooner when you fit new tires, hit a pothole or curb, or notice pulling, an off-center steering wheel or uneven wear.

Do I need an alignment when I buy new tires?

Michelin recommends checking alignment when you put on new tires. A car that is out of specification can wear a new set unevenly, and NHTSA says alignment maximizes tire life, so a check protects the tires you just bought.

What is the difference between alignment and balancing?

Alignment adjusts the suspension angles so the wheels point the right way. Balancing corrects uneven weight in the tire and wheel assembly. AAA lists pulling, an off-center steering wheel and uneven wear for alignment, and vibration above 45 mph for balance.
