How Does Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG Alignment Work?
With an alignment service, adjustments are made to your Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG’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 Mercedes-Benz intended. When your system is aligned to the measurements that Mercedes-Benz specifies for your vehicle, all four tires have equal pressure applied to them on the road. As a result, you get several benefits: your ride is smoother, the treads on your tires can wear more evenly, and your suspension system experiences less strain. Before we adjust the alignment of your 2001 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Mercedes-Benz recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.
When to Get Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG Wheel Alignment
It's a good idea to have your Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG alignment checked every 6,000 miles or so. Even one misaligned wheel can wreak havoc on your 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 2001 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, excessive wear on only one tire, a steering wheel that feels off center or crooked while driving straight ahead, or tires that squeal frequently. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your S55 AMG if your wheel alignment needs attention.
Costs for Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG Alignment Services
Let’s talk numbers: Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the life of your car, it could help you save on overall costs.

Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 2001 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG wheel alignment estimate.
