Ensure your tires are in optimal condition with precise alignment services at D&L Auto Inc. Properly aligned tires not only extend their lifespan but also enhance your vehicle's handling by preventing it from "pulling" to one side. Our certified tire specialists employ state-of-the-art equipment to meticulously inspect your tires for signs of uneven wear, cracking, or slow leaks.
If uneven tread patterns start appearing on your tires, it's likely time for a wheel alignment. This complex process involves adjusting your wheels' angles to match the specifications set by your vehicle's manufacturer.

Alignment FAQs
How long does a full alignment take?
A wheel alignment usually takes about an hour for both two-wheel and four-wheel drive vehicles. However, if there is significant wear and tear on suspension components like bushings, track rods, or the alignment system itself, replacement parts may be needed, which could extend the service time.
What happens if you wait too long for an alignment?
Delaying a wheel alignment can negatively affect your tire performance and lifespan. Even slight misalignments, which are imperceptible to the eye but measurable in small degrees or fractions of an inch, can cause uneven and premature tire wear. Over time, this wear becomes more noticeable, impacting safety and fuel efficiency. To prevent these issues, it's recommended to have your alignment checked every 6,000 miles.
What is checked during an alignment?
During a tire alignment, three key angles are examined: camber, toe, and caster. Camber refers to the angle between the vertical axis of the tire and a line perpendicular to the road surface when viewed from the front. If the top of the tire tilts inward, creating an "X" shape between the wheels, it's known as negative camber, which can cause excessive wear on the inner edge of the tire due to increased friction.
Do I need an alignment after replacing tires?
Yes, you do! Proper wheel alignment ensures that the angles between your tires and the road surface are accurate, which helps to maximize tire life, improve handling, and ensure even tread wear. This not only boosts fuel efficiency and driving safety but also enhances your overall driving experience.

Took my car in because it was making a noise that said, Hey, something's not right but I'm not telling you what. I rolled in on a Monday, explained the situation, and they got me on the schedule for the very next day zero drama, zero nonsense. Turns out it was the front driver's side wheel bearing, which, I now know, is kind of important. The guys working there are twins identical twins so I'm not sure which one I've been chatting with, but both are great so it really doesn't matter. Quick, honest, straight to the point. None of that you might also need a flux capacitor energy. Dropped the car off and by 11am it was DONE. Boom. When I came to pick it up, one of the twins (again, mystery twin) had already started the car and cranked the AC so it wasn't a sweat lodge on wheels when I got in. 10/10 thoughtful move. Highly recommend. I'll definitely be back (but hopefully not too soon ).

Went in today for an inspection. Needed new rear brakes to pass (which was not a big suprise to me). Asked if they would be able to do it today. They said yes and it would be about 2 hours. Asked how long do you think it will take so i can let my boss know because I work from home. The owner offered to let me borrow his personal truck to go home, so I could work and come back when it was finished. Great customer service and a fair price. Will definitely be returning for future needs.
