What Can I Expect with Oldsmobile Calais Alignment?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Oldsmobile Calais's suspension system, which connects the wheels with the rest of the vehicle. During the 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 Oldsmobile intended. When the system is aligned to Oldsmobile specifications, all of your tires experience equal pressure. 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. Bring your 1986 Oldsmobile Calais in for a wheel alignment and we'll start with an alignment check. If needed, we'll adjust your wheel alignment angles to match Oldsmobile recommendations. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.
