Signs Your Vehicle needs a Wheel Alignment

Potholes or uneven road conditions are common when you drive. Some of the components of your wheels may become worn out as a result of driving on these surfaces. This can cause the wheels to shift or become misaligned.


Here are the signs that you need to realign the wheels:

  • If your vehicle tends to drift towards one side, it is a sign you need a wheel alignment.

  • If the steering wheel is vibrating while driving, it is a sign that the wheels are misaligned.

  • Check the tread depth on both sides of each tire. Misaligned wheels won’t have the same rubber depth.

  • Squealing is also a sign that shows that wheels are misaligned.

If you notice any of these signs, do not ignore them. Visit our shop in Kelowna and have a wheel alignment done. Check out our blogs for more information on vehicle care. 

Tires

Tires are a connection between your vehicle and the surface of the road - they are responsible for transmitting the forces of steering and braking to the surface of the road. Overinflated tires result in center tread wear, while the under-inflated ones often have quicker sidewall wear.

When the time comes for the replacement of your car tires, RPM is happy to offer some of the best brands in the business. We sell and install quality tires from Bridgestone® and Toyo®

Wheel Alignment

Camber is the measure of the degree of perpendicular offset from the road surface. While caster is the angle of your wheel's pivot, which is attached to your suspension, and when this angle is out of alignment, straight tracking is affected. Toe refers to the angle of directional difference between the tire and centerline of the vehicle.


Wheel alignment consists of adjusting the wheels of your vehicle. Adjusting the angles of the wheels to the manufacturer's specifications reduces tire wear, gets better gas mileage and allows the driver not to be continually pulled in one direction when moving.

Tire Pressure Monitor

A Tire pressure monitor or TPM monitors the air pressure in your tires when there is an instance of low tire pressure or if the air pressure drops below the manufacturer's recommended level. It detects and reports the discrepancy by illuminating an indicator light on the dashboard. The TPM system helps increase safety on the road, improves maneuverability, decreases tread wear and improves fuel mileage.

Wheel Balancing

Computerized tire balancing equipment is highly accurate and identifies weight distribution-related problems in your tires. Tires and rims should both maintain equal amounts of weight. If you experience vibration in your steering or pulling from your vehicle in one direction, it could be due to an imbalance in the tires. When balancing your tires, the information received by our computerized wheel balancing machine allows us to apply additional weight to the indicated areas to resolve the issues.

Great Service

“My daughter's vehicle wouldn't start, and since we live in a different town, we had to make all the arrangements for diagnostics and repairs over the phone. Kevin, who took my call, was very professional. The car was in and out within 24 hours and we even received a text after the fact, with a copy of the courtesy inspection. Thanks for the great service, RPM!”
