How Does Oldsmobile 88 Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Oldsmobile 88's suspension system, the connection between the vehicle and the wheels. When your car has an alignment service, your tire angles are adjusted according to measurements recommended by Oldsmobile. Why? So that your tires can make contact with the road at the best possible angle. When your suspension is aligned to Oldsmobile’s optimal measurements, all of your tires experience equal pressure. Three good things happen as a result: you enjoy a smoother ride, your tires wear more evenly and last longer, and there’s less strain put on your car’s suspension system. Bring your 1997 Oldsmobile 88 in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Oldsmobile’s recommended measurements. We'll also ensure your tire air pressure is correct.

When to Get Oldsmobile 88 Wheel Alignment

To keep your suspension in good shape, have your Oldsmobile 88 alignment checked about 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 might also want to get an alignment check if you experience any of the following when driving your 1997 Oldsmobile 88: 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. Unfortunately, you won't see any warning lights on your 88 dashboard if your wheel alignment is off.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Oldsmobile 88?

Let’s talk numbers: Oldsmobile 88 wheel alignment might be more budget-friendly than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. Properly aligned wheels may help increase fuel efficiency and tire lifespan, meaning you could get more miles out of the same tires or tank of gas. Regular wheel alignment checks and adjustments could also cut down on future auto repairs. Call your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for an accurate 1997 Oldsmobile 88 wheel alignment estimate.
