Alignment FAQs
How long does a full alignment take?
A wheel alignment typically takes about one hour for both two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive vehicles. However, if significant wear is found in suspension components such as bushings, tie rods, or steering and suspension parts, additional repairs may be required, which can extend the service time.
What happens if you wait too long for an alignment?
Delaying a wheel alignment can have a negative impact on tire life, vehicle handling, and fuel efficiency. Even minor alignment issues that are difficult to see with the naked eye can cause uneven tire wear over time. To avoid premature tire replacement and maintain safe driving conditions, it is recommended to have your alignment checked approximately every 6,000 miles.
What is checked during an alignment?
During a wheel alignment, technicians examine three primary alignment angles: camber, toe, and caster. Camber measures the inward or outward tilt of the tire when viewed from the front, toe measures how much the tires point inward or outward, and caster measures the steering axis angle. These measurements are adjusted to manufacturer specifications to improve handling, tire wear, and overall driving performance.
Do I need an alignment after replacing tires?
Yes. Having an alignment performed after replacing tires helps ensure the tires meet the road at the proper angles. Correct alignment promotes even tread wear, improves handling, increases fuel efficiency, extends tire life, and enhances overall driving safety and comfort.

I took my truck to Hud's to get an alignment done. Previously a Chevrolet dealer did some front end work to my pickup (tie rod ends, idler and pitman arm) and claimed their alignment machine was broke. I called another dealer and told me there was too many variables after I asked if they could get my truck aligned perfectly on the dot. I had it aligned at an NTB after that but it never was really perfect. I put up with an alignment that was within spec but not right for around 15k miles. I got referred to Hud's from Ted at discount tire right down the road for this alignment service. After taking my truck to Hud's it now drives perfectly straight down the road just like it did when it was new. I got great service, a quick time frame, and a fair charge. Nice doing business with honest guys for once.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Honesty and integrity. Actually didn’t have work done because they analyzed my vehicle and realized it was a tire problem. Didn’t even charge me. Because they were honest and told me the problem without charging, I will be back with all my vehicles.

I've been going to Hud's for several years and they have worked on multiple cars of mine. I've been having persistent issues with my current vehicle, with the AC, and the check engine light kept coming on. It was taken somewhere else (not by me) multiple times and had a few very expensive bandaids slapped on it. Recently, the light came back on, so I took the car to Huds. Their prices are very reasonable and they're kind people who will work with you. As a single woman, this is incredibly important to me. I drove off, and the next day the light came back on so I called Huds. They took the car back in and replaced another part, no extra charge. I appreciate their hard work, honesty, and integrity. Huds actually fixes the problem, not the symptoms.

Excellent and friendly service! Said it would be 2-3 days but we got it back next day! We were met with a smile and listened to. They fixed an issue that was caused by another shop and changed the oil for us because they noticed it needed it. Car sounds great!

Huds Auto went above and beyond helping us with my stepson's truck. From the moment we bought the truck, they were professional, honest, and kept us informed throughout the entire process. They did a phenomenal job, and you can tell they truly care about their customers and the quality of their work. It's hard to find an auto shop you can genuinely trust, but Huds Auto has definitely earned ours. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, knowledgeable, and friendly service. Thank you for taking such great care of us!
