Your vehicle's wheels were carefully aligned and balanced at the factory to give you the longest tire life and best overall performance.

In most cases, your wheels will not need to be realigned. However, if you notice abnormal tire wear or the vehicle pulls to one side, alignment may need to be reset.

If you notice that your vehicle vibrates while driving on a smooth road, your wheels may need to be balanced.

CAUTION

Incorrect wheel weights can damage the aluminum wheels of your vehicle. Use only approved wheel weights.
