If you're concerned about the tread on your tires, we recommend the “penny test” to check your tread depth. Simply insert a penny into your tire's tread groove with Lincoln's head upside down and facing you. If you can see all of Lincoln's head, your tread depth is less than 2/32 inch and it's time to replace your tires.

FAQs on Wheel Alignment

What Are the Signs My Car Needs a Wheel Alignment?

Common signs include your vehicle pulling to one side, a steering wheel that is off-center even when you're driving straight, and uneven or premature tire wear. Identifying these issues early is critical in preventing further damage or unsafe driving conditions.

How Often Should I Get a Wheel Alignment?

It is generally recommended to check your wheel alignment every 6,000 to 8,000 miles, or at least once a year. However, this can depend on various factors such as how frequently you drive on rough roads, encounter potholes, or notice changes in the vehicle’s handling.

Furthermore, any major impact, such as hitting a curb or pothole, should prompt an alignment check. Alignments should also be part of routine maintenance, especially after new tire installations or if suspension components are replaced.

Can Poor Alignment Affect My Fuel Efficiency?

Yes, poor alignment can lead to increased rolling resistance, which makes the engine work harder and consumes more fuel. Proper alignment helps ensure your tires meet the road at the correct angle, reducing resistance and improving fuel economy.

What Causes Misalignment in the First Place?

Misalignment can be caused by normal wear and tear, or it can happen suddenly after collision with a pothole, hitting a curb, or being involved in an accident. Dallas's varied road conditions play a significant role in causing alignment issues, making routine checks vital.

Also, modifications to your vehicle, such as suspension lifts, can alter alignment dynamics and necessitate additional adjustments to maintain performance and safety.

Why Choose Professional Services Over DIY?

Professional services ensure that the alignment is done using precise equipment and skilled technicians. DIY attempts are often inaccurate and could lead to more damage. At Christian Brothers Automotive Midway, our advanced technology lets us detect even the smallest misalignment and address it effectively.

Choosing professional services also provides warranties and assurances, giving you confidence in the durability and accuracy of the work performed. This peace of mind is invaluable, ensuring that your vehicle operates as expected without the risk of amateur methods compromising your safety.
