WHEEL ALIGNMENT SERVICE
An off-center steering wheel, pulling to one side, or uneven tire wear can point to an alignment issue. Wheel alignment adjusts the angles of your wheels to help your vehicle track properly and reduce unnecessary tire wear. It’s also worth checking when installing new tires or making suspension changes.
JE Import Performance provides wheel alignment services in Baltimore for stock and modified vehicles. Lowered suspension and aftermarket adjustment components can require additional work to achieve the correct settings. We’ll assess your vehicle, explain any adjustments or parts needed, and provide an estimate based on your setup.
Simply put, a wheel alignment is when a technician uses a machine to adjusts the angle of the wheels relative to the car’s axle and the ground. A wheel alignment problem is usually visible through severe wear on the inside or outside of the tire tread, or worn steering or suspension components.
A wheel balance ensures each individual wheel is balanced around its rim. Small weights are added to the wheel rim to make sure it rotates smoothly. A wheel that’s out of balance will show up as shaking or vibrating through the steering wheel at highway speeds.
These services address two different aspects of the car. Addressing one of them won’t fix the other.
New tires are balanced when they’re mounted to your wheels, and then the technician aligns the wheels after the new tires are installed.
Our Wheel Alignment Service starts at $149.00. This includes 1 hour of labor to perform the necessary adjustments to complete an alignment on a stock vehicle, that requires no additional parts, or part removal to accomplish.
Many of the vehicles we work on have aftermarket adjustment parts, or have been lowered and may require additional labor or parts to accomplish the alignment correctly. We can build an estimate for you based on your vehicle after performing an alignment check service any time.
If you are not experiencing any issues: most vehicle manufacturers recommend having your vehicle’s alignment checked at least 2 times a a year depending on driving habits.
When issues are present: when you experience your vehicle pulling to the left or right, or the steering wheel is off-center when driving straight, your car is telling you it needs a wheel alignment. You may also feel vibrations in the steering wheel. Also, check the tread on the front and rear tires. If the tread is wearing unevenly on tires on the same axle, it’s another sign you need a wheel alignment.
It’s also usually recommended to have a wheel alignment when you get new tires. The wheels should be aligned properly to avoid extra wear on your new tires. You’ll cut down on the chance of shortening the life of your new tires due to any adverse alignment issues.
