Default Wheel Alignment

Hi guys,

I'm about to replace my tires with a new set. I've read about lots of members recommand an alignment while changing the tires.

Consider the identical cost, should I have the alignment done at DiscountTire? or Nissan dealer?
Would Nissan dealer have the newest spec for alignment?

Thanks in advance

You can get an alignment at pretty much any place that sells and mounts tires. Doesn't matter where you get it done.

If the old tires are worn evenly, I would leave the alignment alone.

any time you get new tires, you should get it done.

Wouldn't hurt, esp if you are changing tire size.

since you are from dallas. giving you a tip. ( orig from Dallas, TX)

alignment is pretty much are the same. but way i felt from my old car.

it's really depend who does it. ( currect me if i'm wrong )

my experience Best alignment was Dealer ( Acura dealer - had TypeS)

and second, was lewisville NTB on 35 highway. ( not in carrollton )

well if i was you, i will get a tire from discount tire

and go to NTB get a 1 year alignment free ( believe 100 dollars? )

I have it done once a year at least or when anything happens/changes. Wheels, tires, spacers, etc.
