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.

What our clients are saying about us
We have established longterm and stable partnerships with various clients thanks to our excellence in solving their automotive needs!
There are hardly any words to describe what the phenomenal team of people Borche’s Hi Tech Auto, especially Jason. I tasked them with a nearly impossible engine replacement when my son’s 1997 Chrysler LHS had a catastrophic failure. This car was immensely sentimental to our family because it was the last project my father, as a long-time employee of Chrysler worked on before his retirement. We lost my dad in 2018 but kept his car in excellent condition so when it failed, we could not imagine letting it go. As it turns out it was most definitely a labor of love with all of the “labor†falling on Jason and his team. He is an amazing person, so unbelievably knowledgeable, driven and motivated to complete this project. I will be forever grateful. The amount of time to not only tear the engine down, and put it back together, but all the time and effort to track down other needed parts that did not come with the new engine, as well as other parts that we! re needed because it was so old. I just cannot say enough about his persistence and dedication. I would have thought he was doing this for his own family. Thank you does not seem like enough but THANK YOU for being a miracle worker.
