Alignment FAQs
How long does a full alignment take?
Wheel alignments typically take one hour for both two-wheel and four-wheel drive vehicles. However, excessive wear and tear on suspension components like bushings, track rods, or the system itself can require replacements, extending the service time.
What happens if you wait too long for an alignment?
Delaying tire alignment can lead to significant tire damage and decreased performance. Misalignments, while often minor, can cause uneven and accelerated tire wear over time, affecting safety and fuel efficiency. It's advisable to have alignments checked every 6,000 miles to prevent such issues.
What is checked during an alignment?
During a tire alignment, technicians assess three key angles: camber, toe, and caster. The camber angle measures how much the tire tilts away from being perfectly vertical, viewed from the front or back. Negative camber, where the top of the tire leans inward, typically increases wear on the inner edge of the tire.
Do I need an alignment after replacing tires?
Yes, it's essential to perform an alignment after installing new tires. Proper alignment ensures the tires are positioned correctly relative to the road and each other, extending tire life, improving handling, and promoting even tread wear, which enhances overall driving performance and fuel economy.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Honest and fair. That's all you can ask for in an auto shop these days. And it's hard to find someone you can trust. Well, Hud's has proven themselves as a trustworthy business to me. They don't try to upsale or mislead you, and their prices are always fair. As an electrician, I know labor costs money. They do a good job labor wise and typically pretty quick too. They also stand by their warranty for any type of work done. They have taken care of my daughters car multiple times (it's an old car) and have always done a good job. I would definitely recommend Hud's for any type of auto work.
