Tire alignment is the process of adjusting the angles of a vehicle's wheels to ensure they are set to the manufacturer's specifications. Proper alignment helps the tires make contact with the road evenly, which can improve handling, extend tire life, and enhance fuel efficiency. Misalignment can occur due to hitting potholes, curbs, or general wear and tear. During a tire alignment service, a technician uses specialized equipment to measure the angles of the wheels, including camber, caster, and toe. If any of these angles are off, adjustments are made to bring them back into alignment. Regular alignment checks are recommended to maintain optimal vehicle performance.
