Why Is BMW X5 Alignment Important?

With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your BMW X5’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: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Bring your 2012 BMW X5 in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. 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.

When Should I Get BMW X5 Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your BMW X5 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even a small misalignment can decrease your 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 2012 BMW X5: pulling to the left or right, rapid or uneven wear on one or more tires, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your X5 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.

Costs for BMW X5 Alignment Services

On a budget? BMW X5 wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, so you get more miles out of the same tank of gas and set of tires. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 2012 BMW X5 wheel alignment estimate.
