Aligning your car's tires so they are perpendicular to the ground is called wheel alignment. In addition to improving the handling of your car, wheel alignment is necessary for maintaining optimal vehicle performance.

The 3 Types of Wheel Alignment and What They Mean for You

In general, there are three types of wheel alignments: toe, caster, and camber. The ideal toe angle is zero, but most vehicles have a slight toe-in. By adjusting the caster, you adjust how easy it is to turn the steering wheel at high speeds and during emergency braking. With more caster, turning is easier, but steering wheel vibration may increase. Too much camber can cause tire wear, so keep an eye on it and get it adjusted if necessary.
