Understanding the Basics of Wheel Alignment

As a vehicle owner, it’s important to be aware of why regular maintenance is important. One element of maintenance that often gets overlooked is wheel alignment service. Proper wheel alignment ensures optimal performance of your vehicle in terms of handling and stability. It also increases fuel efficiency, optimizes tire health, and extends its lifespan. Your vehicle’s wheel alignment is measured through your wheels’ angles: camber, caster, and toe. Camber is the wheel’s angle when viewed from the front of the vehicle. If it leans out, it is positive camber; if it leans in, it is negative camber. Caster is the forward or backward tilt of the steering axis’ spindle; similar to camber, it can be negative or positive. Meanwhile, the toe is how far your tires turn inward or outward when viewed from above. Your alignment can be toe-in or toe-out. If one of these angles gets knocked, the wheel alignment service corrects it by reverting it back to manufacturer specifications. At Elite Auto Repair and Services in Kissimmee, Florida, we offer professional wheel alignments for all makes and models.

When Do You Need Wheel Alignment Service?

Improper wheel alignment can lead to poor handling, decreased fuel efficiency, and premature tire wear. This is why we encourage our customers to schedule a service appointment at the first sign of misalignment. Common signs include your vehicle pulling to one side when driving, uneven or rapid tire wear, your steering wheel sitting crooked when driving straight, and noisy steering. There are other scenarios where we recommend getting your vehicle’s alignment checked, too: if you recently got new tires installed, had suspension work done, lifted or lowered your vehicle, or got into an accident. We want you to be as safe as possible on the road, which is why we encourage our customers to be proactive regarding their vehicles. Signs of misalignment can also be mistaken for problems with surrounding parts, such as the steering system or suspension. When you bring your vehicle in, we’ll thoroughly inspect the exact cause of your troubles and make the right fix. Rest assured, we will keep you apprised every step of the way.
