Wheel Alignment

Wheel Alignment in Taylors, SC

Your Local Camber, Caster, and Toe Experts

A smooth and stable ride can be directly attributed to proper wheel alignment. When one or more of your wheels becomes misaligned, poor handling and excessive tire wear are just a couple of the consequences you may encounter. At One Stop Auto Shop (OSAS) in Taylors, SC, we employ precise measuring technology to readjust the angles of your wheels back to manufacturer specifications. These angles comprise the camber, caster, and toe. Camber is the angle at which each wheel points inward or outward relative to the top of its wheel well. Caster is the forward/backward measurement of an imaginary line that runs vertically through the upper and lower steering pivot points; the caster can be positive or negative. Toe is the angle at which each wheel points inward or outward relative to the side of its wheel well. Each needs to be set at the correct angle for optimum performance.

Signs of Misalignment

How do you know when your car needs a wheel alignment? One of the most common symptoms of poor alignment is uneven wear on the tires. When the alignment is off, the tires don’t sit correctly in the wheel well, causing their contact with the road to be compromised. This will cause the tires with poor contact to wear out faster, resulting in tire damage and unsafe driving conditions. Another misalignment indicator is if your vehicle drifts to the left or right despite driving straight. Similarly, you may experience a crooked steering wheel. Noisy steering and squealing tires are additional signs of poor wheel alignment. Several of these signs can point to an issue with your car’s suspension system or steering system instead, which is why we encourage you to seek the assistance of a professional. Even if you don’t experience symptoms, we recommend having your alignment checked after a suspension repair, performance suspension installation, or lift kit installation due to the close nature of these systems.
