What Can I Expect with BMW i3 Alignment?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your BMW i3’s suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. When your car has an alignment 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: your ride is smoother, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. When you bring in your 2017 BMW i3, we’ll perform an alignment check first. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from BMW. We’ll make sure your tire pressure is at the correct level, too.

When to Get BMW i3 Wheel Alignment

It’s wise to have your BMW i3 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and could cause premature wear on your car if not corrected. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 2017 BMW i3: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your i3 if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My BMW i3?

BMW i3 wheel alignment doesn't cost as much as you might think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Appropriately aligned wheels can support increased tire lifespan and fuel efficiency, so you can fill up less often, plus get more miles out of your tires. Proper wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs. Call a nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care to get an estimate for 2017 BMW i3 wheel alignment costs today.
