    Alignment Question

    My front 2 tires are toed in to much. Meaning i have a lot of tread, the tires almost look new, and on the outside, they maybe have another 2 months left before there smooth, and I feel really dumb because I just noticed today!. Anyway the question is, can I just do a front end alignment or because we have AWD do I need to the wheels at once?

    look like my exhaust will wait until I get new tires and a alignment!!!

    Might as well do the entire 4 wheel alignment. The rear's aren't overly adjustable but a good tech can do some magic though.

    4 wheel alignments are good.. unless you like you car to dog track. the price of alinement went up here from $60 to $100 at the dealers.. i dont see why. find a place that will do it to spec. not just get it in the acceptable limits

    NY is terrible for potholes. Upstate's a mess. Even with my long-travel suspension and thick tires I wince. I second the alignment idea. When was the last time it was aligned?

    if you can go for a firestone and get the lifetime alignment for about 190. its worth it. you can take your car in 3 times a day if you wanted and it wont cost you anything but that one time you paied.
