How Does Porsche 911 Alignment Work?

An alignment involves making adjustments to your Porsche 911's suspension system, which serves to attach your wheels to your vehicle. 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 Porsche intended. When your suspension is aligned to Porsche’s optimal measurements, 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 significant stress is taken off your suspension system. Before we adjust the alignment of your 1988 Porsche 911, we’ll start by checking the current alignment angles. After that, we can adjust your wheel alignment angles until they match Porsche’s recommended measurements. Plus, we’ll check to make sure your tire pressure is at an optimal level.

When Should I Get Porsche 911 Wheel Alignment?

It’s wise to have your Porsche 911 alignment checked (and corrected as needed) roughly every 6,000 miles. Believe it or not, even one misaligned wheel can reduce fuel efficiency, and over time can lead to premature wear and tear on your vehicle. You may need to have your alignment checked if you notice any of these signs while driving your 1988 Porsche 911: a pull to one side while the car is in motion, uneven or rapid tire wear, a steering wheel that sits crooked while driving straight, or squealing tires. Unlike with other potential issues, you won’t see any dashboard warning lights in your 911 if your wheel alignment needs attention.

How Much Does It Cost for Alignment Service on My Porsche 911?

On a budget? Porsche 911 wheel alignment might be more affordable than you think. Over the years, it could actually save you money. 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. Optimal wheel alignment could also lead to fewer auto repairs in the future. Contact your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a no-hassle 1988 Porsche 911 wheel alignment estimate.

Porsche 911 Alignment Questions

  • Why does my 1988 Porsche 911 steering feel different? Don't wait for an 'alignment light' on your dashboard. There isn't one. Getting a professional alignment check is the easiest way to know if your 911 alignment is off.
  • What can knock my Porsche 911 out of alignment? Potholes and uneven roads can knock your car out of alignment, so stay aware of the road ahead and adjust your speed (or avoid these obstacles whenever it’s safely possible).
  • I just bought new Porsche 911 tires. Do I need an alignment? Keep new tires in excellent condition with a wheel alignment. Help them wear evenly from the start with a wheel alignment at the time of installation.
  • How often should you get a wheel alignment for your 911? Typically, your alignment should be checked every 6,000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. Double-check your 911 owner’s manual for Porsche's exact recommended schedule.
  • Do you need to get your 911 wheels aligned? While you don’t necessarily need to get an alignment when putting new tires on your 911, it’s still a good idea. Ensuring your wheels are properly aligned can help support optimal handling, tire wear, and fuel efficiency.

  • My 911 steering wheel is crooked. Will an alignment fix it? A wheel alignment is usually what it takes to fix a crooked 911 steering wheel. When the wheels are not properly aligned, they can cause the car to pull to one side, which can also cause the steering wheel to become crooked while you're driving straight down the road.
