Automotive Tips from Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Center Appleton: Alignment Inspection

August 4, 2019

Uneven tire wear, the car pulling to one side or a steering wheel that is off-center are signs for Appleton drivers that their wheels may be out of alignment.

When doing an alignment inspection, the service advisor at Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Center Appleton will inspect your tires for uneven wear as well as suspension and steering parts for signs of wear or damage. He?ll also compare your current alignment with the vehicle manufacturer?s settings.

Your vehicle owner?s manual will have a recommendation for when to check alignment. Of course, this recommendation is based on normal driving. If you have been in a crash, hit a curb/pothole, frequently drive off-road around Appleton, or notice any symptoms of misalignment, have your Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Center Appleton service advisor perform an important alignment check.
