Alignment

I just got some new wheels and tires. Should I also be getting alignment as well ? My truck is brand new (265/75/16 duratracs on methods)

 

depends on driving environs

off road

hi way

urban commute

best to get alignment with new tyres...................on a brand new truck brand new tyre
i would say not necessary

alignment ......go off road results can change quickly

potholes ........urban commute alignment can diminish quicker than hi way touring

so whats Ur poison

 

Well I noticed on highway it was pulling a little and steering wheel felt a little crooked when driving straight. I went ahead and paid the 100 bucks for an alignment.

 

Brand new, never had an alignment? Yes; alignment is crap from the factory.

8" wide/0 offset? If yes, make sure you run those with some toe-in(+0.05) to balance out the added positive scrub

 

Tires are expensive, alignments are cheap insurance.

When in doubt, get it checked out.

 

My truck is my everything. Daily commuter and weekend warrior. I figured I might as well do it right the first time than blow through brand new tires

 

did it drive better ???

 

I’ll let you know having it done right now.

 

So you decided in 9 minutes to do it?

 

Haha I guess

 

that was a quickie .....................

 

Lol I’m on a time hack.

 

i was skeptical about the bronze but I’m happy with it.

 

Go to a place with experience on truck alignments. 4wd shop etc. Remember you can't add rubber to tires once you wore them from an improper alignment. Duratracs are great in the snow BTW.
