Alignment
A car that pulls or eats tires unevenly is out of alignment — and it's costing you money every mile. Highlands Auto Center sets your alignment to spec in Dallas, so your
**Definitional opener:** A wheel alignment sets your suspension angles so the tires meet the road straight and true. At Highlands Auto Center in Dallas, we measure all the angles and adjust to spec — so your car tracks straight and your tires stop wearing out early.
If your car pulls to one side, your wheel's off-center on a straight road, or your new tires are wearing on one edge, your alignment is off — and it's quietly eating your tires. Highlands Auto Center straightens it out for Dallas drivers. Call (972) 233-8882 or book online.
Signs you're out of alignment
- The car pulls left or right on a flat, straight road
- The steering wheel sits crooked when you're going straight
- Uneven tire wear (one edge gone)
- The steering feels loose or wanders
- You hit a curb or big pothole recently
What we do
- Measure camber, caster, and toe on all four wheels
- Compare to the manufacturer's spec
- Adjust to bring it back in range
- Inspect suspension/steering parts that affect alignment
- Road-test to confirm it tracks straight
Why alignment protects your tires
A small misalignment scrubs the tread off as you drive — you can ruin a new set in a few thousand miles. Alignment is cheap insurance for an expensive set of tires.
