Wheel Alignment Service

SAVE TIME, BOOK ONLINE

All Belle Tire locations offer free wheel alignment inspections and are equipped to provide wheel alignment services. A mechanic will measure your vehicle's wheel alignment and compare it to the manufacturer's recommended specifications. If adjustments are necessary, the mechanic will use an alignment machine to adjust the settings on your vehicle's suspension. Proper wheel alignment can protect your tires from wearing out 25-30% faster than they would with misalignment.

    "My car needed an alignment, so I scheduled an appointment online. When I arrived at this Belle Tire location, I was cheerfully greeted by the service advisor and my car was quickly taken into their service bay. Within 30 minutes they had my car assessed and alignment corrected. Being an engineer, I appreciated the computer printout of the "before" and "after" measurements on my vehicle. I am very happy with this quick and complete service and will do business here again!"

  • Regular wheel alignments will help maintain your investment by extending tire wear

Regular wheel alignments will help protect your investment by extending tire wear. In addition to helping your tires last longer, having your tires properly aligned ensures your suspension remains in good working order. The suspension is made of a number of components that need to be in alignment for your vehicle to experience optimal handling and performance.

There are also several safety benefits associated with having your tires aligned. For example, your vehicle may pull to the left or right when it is not aligned properly. You may also experience steering and suspension issues that may compromise your safety and control on the road. Having your vehicle set in place, your steering wheel centered, and all four wheels set parallel allows you to have a safer driving experience.

Wheel alignments, along with having the correct tire inflation, can also improve gas mileage. Tires that are underinflated by 20 percent can reduce your fuel economy by as much as ten percent. It can also reduce tread life by 15 percent. Belle Tire can help with a free alignment check to make sure that all of your vehicle's wheels are aligned, increasing the life of your steering and suspension system and tires. Sensors are attached to each wheel and data is disseminated. The camber, toe and caster will then be adjusted to match the manufacturer's standards, which allow your car or truck to handle properly.
