Wheel alignments, also known as tire alignments, are an essential part of tire maintenance. By adjusting the suspension, you will prevent uneven tire wear and help your vehicle stay heading in the right direction. Here at Fullerton Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, our service center is proud to offer drivers in the Somerville, New Jersey area all the necessary tire services, including alignments. Wheel alignments are less commonly known than tire rotations and are required less frequently but equally as important. Please continue reading below to learn more about wheel alignments and what makes them so crucial to your tire’s performance. 

What is Wheel Alignment?

A wheel alignment is in reference to the adjustment of your vehicle’s suspension. The suspension system is what connects the wheels to the vehicle. Although it is called a wheel alignment, it is not an adjustment of the wheels themselves but the mechanical components of the suspension system. The purpose of a wheel alignment is to adjust the angles of the tires to ensure they make optimal contact with the road surface. Three adjustments are necessary to your car’s alignment; camber, caster, and toe. The one thing these angles have in common is that they cause excessive premature tire wear, oftentimes wearing the tires unevenly across the road surface. Below, we’ll cover each of these adjustments and how they affect your car’s alignment. 

What is Camber on a Car?

Your vehicle’s camber is the vertical angle of the wheels when looking at them from the front of the car. Positive camber is when the top side of the wheel is angled outward. Meanwhile, negative camber is when the top side of the wheel is angled inward. Any positive or negative camber indicates the wheels are out of alignment and need to be adjusted. Wear and tear on the wheel ball joints, wheel bearings, and other suspension components can cause the camber to come out of alignment.

What is the Caster Angle?

The caster angle of your wheels is the angle of the steering axis. This angle helps keep the vehicle balanced, stable, and handling well in corners. Like camber, the caster is measured in positive or negative. Positive caster means the steering axis is pointed toward the driver, while negative caster means that the steering axis is leaned toward the front of the vehicle. A misaligned caster angle can cause decreased stability and handling. 

What is the Toe Angle?

The wheel’s toe is the opposite of caster. It is the horizontal angle of the tire. It is measured by toe-in or toe-out. Toe-in means that the front of the wheels are pointed inwards, while toe-out means the front of the wheels are pointed outward. Your wheels toe causes trouble in a couple of ways. First, like the other two angles, it causes premature uneven tire wear. This means the inner or outer edges wear faster than the center tread. Additionally, because the tires are essentially dragging down the road, it causes a decrease in fuel economy, as the engine has to work harder to get the tires moving. 

How to Tell if a Car Needs an Alignment

Your car will tell you the wheels are out of alignment in a few ways. If you notice any of these signs, you should have your car’s alignment checked by a certified technician, like the ones here at the Fullerton CDJR service center. The most common sign that wheels are out of alignment is that the vehicle is pulling to one side or the other. This is often accompanied by a steering wheel being off-center, even when the vehicle driving straight. However, your car can have one of these symptoms or the other. Another symptom of misaligned wheels is uneven tread wear. This can be seen by simply looking at the tire and taking note if there are any spots in the tread that are worn down more than the rest of the tire. This can also happen all the way around on the inner or outer edge. Lastly, misaligned wheels can cause a steering wheel vibration. If you experience any of these, bring your vehicle to the service center here at Fullerton CDJR, and a certified technician will happily test the alignment and make the necessary adjustments to correct the problem.
