What Is Wheel Alignment and Why Is It Important in Louisville?

Wheel alignment—also called front end alignment or tire alignment—adjusts the angles of your wheels to match manufacturer specifications. Proper alignment ensures tires make even contact with the road, which improves handling, reduces tire wear, and keeps your vehicle tracking straight. In Louisville, where potholes, curbs, and seasonal road conditions are common, regular alignment checks help protect your investment in tires and keep your vehicle safe.

Common Signs You Need Wheel Alignment Service

Watch for these warning signs that your vehicle needs alignment:

Vehicle Pulls to One Side: If your car drifts left or right when driving on a straight, flat road, alignment is likely off.

Uneven or Rapid Tire Wear: Tires wearing more on one edge indicate alignment problems that need correction.

Steering Wheel Off-Center: A crooked steering wheel when driving straight means the wheels aren't properly aligned.

Vibration in the Steering Wheel: While often caused by balance issues, vibration can also signal alignment problems.

After Hitting a Pothole or Curb: Any significant impact can knock wheels out of alignment and should be checked promptly.

Catching these signs early prevents costly tire replacement and keeps your vehicle handling properly.

We provide comprehensive alignment services for all vehicle types:

Front End Alignment (Two-Wheel Alignment)

Adjusts front wheels only to manufacturer specifications. This service is suitable for vehicles with solid rear axles that don't require rear adjustment, offering a cost-effective solution for proper front-end tracking and tire wear prevention.

Four-Wheel Alignment

Adjusts all four wheels to precise manufacturer angles. This comprehensive service is necessary for vehicles with independent rear suspension or adjustable rear alignment, ensuring optimal handling, even tire wear, and proper vehicle tracking on all wheels.

Thrust Angle Alignment

Ensures rear wheels are properly aligned with the front wheels, correcting tracking and drift issues. This service is essential even on vehicles with non-adjustable rear suspensions, helping your vehicle drive straight and preventing uneven tire wear patterns.

ADAS Calibration with Alignment

Vehicles with advanced driver assistance systems often require camera and sensor recalibration after alignment adjustments. If your vehicle has lane departure warning, automatic emergency braking, or similar features, ask about our ADAS calibration services available through our auto electrical department.

FAQs about Wheel Alignment Services

How often should I get a wheel alignment?

We recommend checking alignment at least once a year or every 12,000 miles. You should also get alignment checked after hitting potholes or curbs, when installing new tires, or if you notice pulling, uneven wear, or steering issues. Regular alignment checks help catch problems early and extend tire life.

Can I drive with bad tire alignment?

You can drive with bad alignment, but it's not recommended for extended periods. Poor tyre alignment causes rapid, uneven tire wear that shortens tire life significantly. It also affects handling and can make your vehicle less stable in emergency situations. The longer you wait, the more you'll spend on premature tire replacement.

What causes wheels to go out of alignment?

Common causes include hitting potholes or curbs, driving on rough roads, worn suspension components, and normal wear over time. Even minor impacts can shift alignment angles enough to cause problems. Regular inspections help catch alignment issues before they damage your tires.

Will alignment fix my steering wheel vibration?

Alignment usually won't fix steering wheel vibration—that's typically caused by unbalanced tires or worn suspension parts. However, if your steering wheel is off-center or the vehicle pulls to one side, alignment will correct those issues. Our pre-alignment inspection identifies the actual cause of vibration.

Do I need alignment after getting new tires?

While not always required, alignment is highly recommended when installing new tires. Proper alignment ensures your new tires wear evenly and last as long as possible. Many tire warranties require documented alignment service. It's a small investment that protects your tire purchase.

What's the difference between wheel alignment and wheel balancing?

Wheel alignment adjusts the angles of your wheels relative to the vehicle and road. Wheel balancing corrects weight distribution around the wheel and tire assembly. Alignment prevents pulling and uneven wear, while balancing eliminates vibration. Both services are important but address different issues.

Does Deals Tires offer ADAS calibration with alignment service?

Yes, we provide ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) calibration when needed after alignment service. Many modern vehicles with features like lane departure warning or automatic emergency braking require camera and sensor recalibration after alignment adjustments. We have the equipment to perform these calibrations properly.
