What People Are Saying About Us
Why Wheel Alignment Matters?
Wheel alignment sets three key angles – Toe (in/out), Camber (tilt), and Caster (steering pivot) – so all four tires roll straight with the least scrub. When alignment is off, you’ll see uneven tire wear, vehicle pulling in one direction, a crooked steering wheel, and sometimes reduced fuel economy because the car fights itself down the road.
The fix is a computerized 4-wheel alignment that restores spec and transforms how the car tracks, brakes, and turns. Proper alignment delivers longer tire life, better safety, a smoother ride, and lower running costs over time especially on Halifax’s pothole-prone streets. Check alignment after new tires, suspension work, or hard impacts.
Signs You Need an Alignment
The vehicle pulls left or right on a straight, level road.
Steering wheel off-centre when driving straight.
Feathered/cupped edges or rapid, uneven tire wear.
Vibration or wander after a curb/pothole hit.
New tires that start wearing unevenly early.
Poor fuel economy with no other explanation.
If you notice any of these, book a check alignments are recommended after tire installs or suspension repairs.
FAQ's
If your car pulls, the steering wheel isn’t centred, or your tires show uneven wear, yes. Also check alignment after new tires, suspension work, or pothole/curb impacts.
Yes - Dial A Tire Halifax performs in-house 4-wheel alignments with inspection and printouts. We’re local and ready to help today.
Look for pulling, crooked wheel, or uneven tread wear. These are classic signs the angles are out of spec. A quick inspection confirms it.
Prices vary by vehicle and shop. Typical prices in Canada range from $100 to $200 for a four-wheel alignment; local shops list sample pricing around $120 for cars/SUVs (before tax). Get a quote ahead of time.
Not practical - modern alignments require a level rack, calibrated sensors/cameras, and spec data. DIY attempts risk worsening tire wear and handling. Use a qualified shop.
After installing new tires! Mount/balance first, then align so readings reflect the final setup and protect your new tread from day one.
