Why Is BMW 428i xDrive Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your BMW 428i xDrive’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. In an alignment service, calculated changes are made to the angles of your tires. This is so that your tires hit the road at an optimal angle for your vehicle’s performance — just as BMW intended. When your suspension is aligned to BMW’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: your car handles better, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2016 BMW 428i xDrive, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match BMW’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When Should I Get BMW 428i xDrive Wheel Alignment?
