Why Is BMW 318ti Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your BMW 318ti’s suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the service, the individual angles of your tires are adjusted so that they come into contact with the road in just the right way — the way BMW intended them to. When the system is aligned to BMW specifications, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1996 BMW 318ti, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match BMW recommendations. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get BMW 318ti Wheel Alignment?

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your BMW 318ti alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1996 BMW 318ti: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your 318ti dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My BMW 318ti?

Let’s talk numbers: BMW 318ti wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1996 BMW 318ti wheel alignment estimate.
