Premium BMW Wheel Alignment Service

Wheel alignment service is an important and necessary service to maintain the safety and quality of your vehicle. Wheel alignments ensure your wheels last longer and that you are maintaining your maximum fuel economy. Proper alignment of your wheels also makes sure your vehicle’s handling is performing as intended.

If your vehicle is pulling in one direction or your steering wheel is vibrating when accelerating, it is time for a wheel alignment. The expert members of our certified team specialize in BMW wheel alignments and will perform a comprehensive assessment before making necessary changes to the alignment. Here is what our certified technicians look for when completing a wheel alignment inspection.

The first area of inspection is the camber. The camber is seen when looking at your vehicle from the front and is the outward or inward angle of your wheels. If there are worn ball joints, suspension parts, or bearing, the camber can be affected. Our team looks for too much of a tilt, which means there is a misalignment.

The toe is the second mechanism to be inspected. The toe is inspected by looking at your BMW from above. Technicians are looking at the outward and inward angle of the wheels here as well but from a different viewpoint. If the wheels are not parallel with the rest of the vehicle and have a toe-in or toe-out appearance, a wheel alignment service is necessary.

To finish the inspection, Capital BMW technicians look at the steering access as viewed from the side of the vehicle, which is called the caster. To ensure proper stability, cornering, balance, and steering, the caster needs to be positioned as intended.

When Does Your BMW Need a Wheel Alignment?

Although our service team inspects the functioning and performs a free wheel alignment check at routine maintenance appointments, there are common signs that your BMW needs a wheel alignment service if you are in-between visits.

Your BMW requires a wheel alignment service if you notice your steering wheel or vehicle is pulling to the left or right when you are driving straight. This means that the handling of your vehicle is inadequate due to the misalignment of the wheels. Wheels that are wearing quickly to unevenly also inform you of a necessary BMW wheel alignment. If steering becomes noisy or you notice your tires are squealing when operating, promptly schedule your wheel alignment appointment with Capital BMW today.

Our team at Capital BMW knows that accidents, such as hitting curbs and potholes, happen. To prevent wheel misalignment when this happens, we recommend taking your foot off the brake to prevent the suspension from taking the brunt of the impact. When you hit a curb or pothole, the suspension compresses over the front tires as the front of the vehicle dips. This prevents the wheels from obtaining the impact and can cause damage to parts of the wheels and cause a misalignment to the wheels.
