- The car drifts or pulls to one side on a straight road
- The steering wheel is off-center when driving straight
- Tires wear faster on the inside or outside edge
- It started after a pothole or curb hit
When to get one
After new tires, after suspension or steering parts are replaced, and after a hard pothole or curb hit. Brooklyn's potholes knock alignments out often, and a bad alignment wears out tires early.
Alignment or balancing?
An alignment sets the angles of the wheels so the car tracks straight and the tires wear evenly. Balancing adds small weights so a wheel spins without vibrating. A shake at highway speed is usually a balance problem; a pull is usually alignment.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a wheel alignment at TK Modern Auto Repair?
$150, done in-house at 221 Bay 37th St, Brooklyn.
How do I know I need an alignment?
The car pulls or drifts, the steering wheel sits off-center, or the tires wear on one edge. A hard pothole hit is a common cause.
Should I get an alignment with new tires?
Yes, it is a good idea: a bad alignment wears out new tires early.
Do I need an alignment after suspension work?
Often. Replacing struts, tie rods or control arms changes the wheel angles, so an alignment usually follows.
My steering wheel shakes at highway speed. Is that alignment?
Usually not. Shaking is more often a tire balance problem or a worn part. Pulling to one side is the typical alignment symptom.
Do you also do tires?
Yes: tire installation, rotation, balancing and repair.
