Why Is BMW 528i Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your BMW 528i’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. During the 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 system is aligned to the measurements that BMW specifies for your vehicle, there's equal pressure being applied to all of your tires. Three good things happen as a result: your ride is smoother, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 1997 BMW 528i in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. 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.

How Often to Get Wheel Alignment Service for Your BMW 528i

It’s wise to have your BMW 528i alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1997 BMW 528i: pulling to the left or right, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your 528i dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
