What Can I Expect with BMW 550i Alignment?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your BMW 550i’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your 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 your suspension is aligned to BMW’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. This gives you several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. When you bring in your 2009 BMW 550i, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from BMW. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your BMW 550i alignment checked about every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle if left unaddressed. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2009 BMW 550i: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or noticeable squealing noises from your tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your 550i if your wheel alignment needs attention.
