Alignment FAQs
How long does a full alignment take?
A wheel alignment typically takes about one hour for both two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive vehicles. However, if significant wear is found in suspension components such as bushings, tie rods, or steering and suspension parts, additional repairs may be required, which can extend the service time.
What happens if you wait too long for an alignment?
Delaying a wheel alignment can have a negative impact on tire life, vehicle handling, and fuel efficiency. Even minor alignment issues that are difficult to see with the naked eye can cause uneven tire wear over time. To avoid premature tire replacement and maintain safe driving conditions, it is recommended to have your alignment checked approximately every 6,000 miles.
What is checked during an alignment?
During a wheel alignment, technicians examine three primary alignment angles: camber, toe, and caster. Camber measures the inward or outward tilt of the tire when viewed from the front, toe measures how much the tires point inward or outward, and caster measures the steering axis angle. These measurements are adjusted to manufacturer specifications to improve handling, tire wear, and overall driving performance.
Do I need an alignment after replacing tires?
Yes. Having an alignment performed after replacing tires helps ensure the tires meet the road at the proper angles. Correct alignment promotes even tread wear, improves handling, increases fuel efficiency, extends tire life, and enhances overall driving safety and comfort.

I mean this sincerely: AutoChoice is the best and most competent mechanic shop I have ever used. I will not take my vehicles anywhere else but here unless it is for a recall through the dealership. They earned my complete trust with how thorough they were. After their diagnostic inspection, they sent pictures of everything that passed, everything that failed, a full report on the truck, and step-by-step photos of the work I asked them to do. I had real peace of mind knowing they looked at everything I mentioned and then some. The work was high quality and is still holding up great. I spent around 5k with them and would do it again. They were fair. They keep my classic on the road, my daily will come here when needed and I would recommend AutoChoice to anyone that needs a knowledgeable and trustworthy mechanic shop.

Lloyd and team got me in within two days,, diagnosed the issue we’ve been having with steering for months, and made the repairs at a fair price. They provided a written list of other items to consider for later with no sales pressure. I was pleasantly surprised my issue was fixed the first time as that’s not been my experience with other shops! The drive home was flawless. Lloyd called me with options and status along the way, and responded to all my questions. We will be back! Michael Brown, 06/26/2026 |
When I was in college 10+ years ago and my truck needed multiple rounds of work, they were really helpful and I felt really confident they had my best interests in mind. I just went back with the same truck and I was happy to see it's still the great place I remembered. Definitely recommend. Chase Bogan Sellers, 05/06/2026 |
