Alignment!  So Crucial.

Dear Diary,

Alignment! A crucial element to your vehicle’s performance and getting the most from your tires. In this episode, with the help of Alignment Guru Tim we discuss the basics staying aligned, suspensions, and glasses. Yes, glasses. 

Alignment is included with any 4-tire purchase

That’s great, but what is an alignment?

What if you walked at a left angle all of the time? You would never get where you needed to be, that’s what. Also, people would probably stare. At Tire Discounters, we hold alignment in high regard. It is crucial to the life of your tires and gives you more control over your vehicle. In fact, we hold it in such high regard that it is FREE with a 4-tire purchase! During your vehicle’s life, potholes are hit, sharp turns are taken and brakes are slammed – all of which cause your components to wear down and your wheels to shift which can pull your car in one direction.  Do not worry, this is natural wear and tear – but it can accelerate tire damage.  When we align your tires, we are returning the angles of your vehicle’s wheels to the manufacturer’s specifications.

A proper wheel alignment does four very important things:

• Reduces tire wear and provides maximum tire life
• Enhances fuel economy
• Improves handling
• Increases overall driving safety

Extended Coverage

Don’t get bent out of shape, we offer Alignment Coverage for the life of your tires!  You can choose between a 1-year, 3-year, or 5-year plan.  This will cover an alignment whenever you need one for the duration of your policy.  Savings over the duration of the plan are huge!

Did you know?

Your suspension requires regular maintenance.  All vehicles were designed with multiple alignment/adjustment points, commonly 6.  Car manufacturers build their suspensions with the expectation that they are inspected and adjusted frequently to maintain stability and minimize tire wear.

How often should I have my car aligned?

Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations noted in your owner’s manual. But, as a general rule, have your vehicle’s alignment checked every 6,000 miles or at least twice a year.

Have your car checked at your local Tire Discounters for FREE if you notice:

• Excessive or uneven tire wear
• The steering wheel pulls to the side
• Feeling of looseness or wandering
• The steering wheel is off-center
