Wheel Alignment in Whitecourt

When a vehicle needs a wheel alignment, and what to ask a Whitecourt tire shop about it.

Potholes, frost heaves and rough gravel roads can knock a vehicle out of alignment. The first signs are usually a steering wheel that isn't straight, the vehicle pulling to one side, or tires wearing on one edge.

Checking the alignment when new tires go on helps them wear evenly and last their full life.

Not every tire shop has an alignment machine, so ask whether the shop does alignments when you call.
