Time to come in?
Suspension, steering, and tires wear together — and Iowa roads chew them up fast. Any of these mean it's time to schedule:
Alignment out of spec after a pothole, or a worn tie rod letting the wheel drift. Cheaper to fix than a new set of tires.
Feathered edges, inside or outside wear — your alignment is off or a suspension part is worn. We inspect free with any tire service.
Struts or shocks are worn out. Test: push down on a corner — a healthy shock stops after one bounce, a bad one keeps going.
Play in the wheel usually means a tie rod, ball joint, or rack bushing has worn. Safety issue — get it checked.
Out-of-balance wheel, bent rim, or worn hub bearing. We rebalance, road-force check, and inspect the hub.
Sway-bar links, strut mounts, or control-arm bushings. Small parts, cheap to fix now — expensive if they take a bigger part with them.
Rides right, tracks straight
Alignment is in our name — and it's more than turning a bolt. Every alignment starts with a suspension inspection, because aligning a truck with bad tie rods just puts it right back out of spec. We sell, mount, balance, and repair tires under the same roof.
$20 off struts or shocks
$20.00 off a pair of struts or shocks on passenger cars and light trucks. Buying tires too? Mount & balancing is 50% off with a set of four passenger tires and an alignment. Mention the special when you call.
