Warning Signs of Bad Alignment or Tire Wear
If your vehicle exhibits any of these warning signs, get in touch with our Missoula shop before minor symptoms develop into severe mechanical failures.
Pulling to One Side
If your car drifts or pulls to the left or right when you loosen your grip on the steering wheel, your wheels are out of alignment—frequently triggered by hitting deep potholes on Broadway or Brooks Street.
Off-Center Steering
If you have to hold the steering wheel crooked (to the left or right) just to keep the car going straight, your suspension geometry is misaligned.
Uneven Tread Wear
If the tread is wearing flat on the inside or outside edges (feathering or cupping), your alignment is scraping the rubber away prematurely.
Steering Vibrations
A rapid shaking or vibration felt in your steering wheel or seat at 55+ MPH indicates that your tires are out of balance or have flat spots.
Our Wheel & Tire Services
Our mechanics follow factory service procedures, using professional diagnostic tools and premium replacement parts to make sure your repair is done right.
Computerized Alignment
A wheel alignment adjusts your suspension angles so your tires make contact with the road flat and straight. We place your car on our laser-guided alignment rack to measure your caster (steering pivot angle), camber (inward or outward lean), and toe (inward or outward angle). We then adjust the linkages to prevent your car from pulling to one side and to stop the road from chewing up your tires.
New Tire Sourcing & Mounting
We help you choose the right tires for Montana's changing seasons—whether you need studless winter tires before snow covers Mount Jumbo or all-terrain tires for summer recreation. We mount them using touchless tire changers that prevent scratches on custom alloy wheels.
Dynamic Wheel Balancing
Even tiny weight differences around a tire can cause it to wobble at speed. We spin-test your tire and wheel assemblies on a computerized dynamic balancer. The machine tells us exactly where the heavy spots are, and we attach small weights to offset the imbalance. This prevents steering wheel shakes when commuting on Highway 93.
Rotations & Inspections
Tires on your drive axle wear out faster than the others. We rotate your tires between the front and rear axles at scheduled intervals to spread the wear evenly and extend their lifespan. During this service, we check the sidewalls for bubbles, inspect the tread depth, and check for embedded road debris from driving near the Clark Fork River crossings.
