Tires and wheel alignment in Lethbridge, AB
Wheel alignments and tires, for all makes and models.
A vehicle that pulls to one side, or a tire wearing faster on one edge than across the rest of the tread, usually comes back to alignment.
Northside Auto handles wheel alignment in Lethbridge on our own equipment, for all makes and models including fleet vehicles. We fit tires here as well.
Wheel alignment in Lethbridge
Alignment is the set of angles your wheels sit at in relation to the road and to each other. When those angles are right the vehicle tracks straight and the tread wears evenly across all four corners.
It does not take much to knock them out. A hard hit on a curb will do it, so will a pothole, and so will ordinary wear as suspension components settle over time.
We measure where the angles actually sit, compare them to the specification your automaker set for that vehicle, and adjust back to it. The readings go out with your digital inspection, so you see them before anything is adjusted.
Routine alignments extend the life of a set of tires, and they can be what keeps a tire warranty valid.
Book an alignmentSigns your alignment is out
Most people notice one of these before they notice anything else.
- The vehicle pulls to one side while you're driving straight and holding the wheel level
- One tire is wearing faster on an edge than across the rest of the tread
- A set of tires is wearing out well before you expected to replace it
- You have hit a curb hard, or found a pothole at speed
Signs you need new tires
We check the tread while the vehicle is on the hoist and tell you what we find. These are the things that decide whether a tire is done:
- Tread depth getting low
- Tread wearing unevenly, one edge faster than the other
- Pressure that keeps dropping and needs topping up between visits
- Punctures, or damage anywhere in the sidewall
