A wheel alignment service makes sure all 4 tires are perfectly moving in the same direction. The most common reason for investing in an alignment is to make your tires last as long as possible. Good tires can go 60k miles if your alignment is straight. But with an alignment out of spec, those tires could wear out in less than 10,000 miles.
We recommend an alignment once a year or anytime you buy new tires. Think about all of the bumps and potholes you hit every single day and imagine that abuse happening over a year! Yep, time for an alignment!
Your vehicle pulling to the side or your steering wheel being off center is another good sign that an alignment is due. By that time, the alignment is severely out of spec and probably causing major tire wear issues as well as handling concerns.
Even if your wheel is straight and the car isn’t pulling, there’s still a chance the alignment could be off — and that can cause premature tire wear. Next time you’re in for service just ask for our Free Alignment Check and we’ll make sure everything is in order.
We get this question a lot and in most cases when there is a vibration, shake, or rattle it is not caused by the alignment. When your steering wheel shakes or you feel your car shaking, the problem is typically related to wheel balance, a suspension failure, or even a misfire. These can be inspected during our free courtesy inspection that we perform every time we see your car.
Our first and most affordable alignment is called the “Toe and Go”.
A toe and go typically means just set the front toe and send it! We take that a step further here and our “Toe and Go” service includes a complete front end alignment (including camber adjustment) and sometimes even minor adjustments in the rear of the vehicle.
This alignment service is designed to fit our budget friendly customers or a very basic car. Basic cars like those from Honda, Scion, Kia, and Toyota typically do not need a complete alignment so this basic and affordable alignment is the way to go!
The most common alignment we perform is called the “4 wheel alignment”.
This type of alignment is what most dealerships and reputable repair shops perform on most cars. It’s a complete alignment of the front and rear including camber, caster, and toe. This ensures your vehicle drives straight and does not wear through your tires. Some tires can last up to 60k miles with a straight alignment, so don’t waste your money buying tires when you don’t need to!
We offer 2 types of premium alignments: the “Luxury Alignment” and “Performance Alignment”.
These two services are grouped together because they’re about the same price, require about the same amount of work, but have 2 very different outcomes. This is the service that dealers should be doing on your nice cars — but it’s typically not happening.
A premium alignment is the most precise and requires a full tank of gas as the OEM manual says. We cover your seats with plastic covers followed by durable mats then place the appropriate amount of weight in the vehicle. This simulates the occupants of the car — and the result is a proper alignment performed as the car usually operates.
For our luxury car owners (like BMW 5 series alignment and BMW 7 series alignment) this means an effortless drive performing as the vehicle did when it was new. For our performance car owners (like BMW M5 alignment and BMW M3 alignment) this means an aggressive peak handling alignment to zoom around corners, change lanes without your blinker, and zip through the Starbucks drive through as fast as possible!
Don’t let poor tire alignment shorten the life of your tires or compromise your vehicle’s performance. Whether you need a quick front-end adjustment or a precision service for your luxury or performance car, we’ve got you covered. Our team of experts in Oceanside, CA, is here to make sure your driving experience is as smooth as possible.
