Why Is BMW 550i Alignment Important?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your BMW 550i’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. When your car has 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 four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 2013 BMW 550i in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match BMW recommendations. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When Should I Get BMW 550i Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your BMW 550i alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease your fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 2013 BMW 550i: a feeling that your car pulls to one side, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or tires that squeal frequently. You won’t see any warning lights on your 550i 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 550i?

On a budget? BMW 550i wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. In the long run, it could actually help you save money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2013 BMW 550i wheel alignment estimate.
