How Does Mazda 323 Alignment Work?

Alignment services involve precise adjustments to your Mazda 323’s suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. In 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 Mazda intended. When the system is aligned to Mazda specifications, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: you enjoy a smoother ride, the lifespan of your tires increases, and significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1990 Mazda 323, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. Then, we’ll adjust the angles as needed until they match recommended measurements from Mazda. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get Mazda 323 Wheel Alignment?

It's a good idea to have your Mazda 323 alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. 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 may also want to stop by for an alignment check if you notice any of the following with your 1990 Mazda 323: pulling to the left or right, excessive wear on only one tire, a crooked steering wheel when driving straight, or squealing tires. You won’t see any warning lights on your 323 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off, so pay close attention to these symptoms.
