    does this mean that a car should be checked for alignment and adjusted every time you switch out tires, even if already on rims? e.g. between winter and summer... ?

    • @TocyBlox
      @TocyBlox 4 месяца назад

      No. People get an alignment when getting new tires is just to protect the new tires. Because they probably didn’t get it done for a while now. If you did alignment before the tire change and the car is all good, then it’s okay to not get an alignment after getting new tires.
      As for tire rotation, no need.

    popping sound, alignment will not fix that even if the noise goes away, take your vehicle to a shop that knows to take the weight of of control arms AND frame. also check for real time flex, e.g. popping the brakes in reverse and drive

    Why my tires wear out inside only in the rear axle ? Front axle tires are just fine. I drive Front Wheel Drive Car.

    What if my car shakes when i push on the brakes?? it happened to me. also when i go accidentally through a somewhat deep pothole sounds as if i hit steel against steel. what could be wrong there??

    • @BEEBEE159
      @BEEBEE159 7 лет назад

      I think that is a sign that your struts are bad.

    • @cachem11

      do a resurfacing on brake rotors

    • @rezagrans1296
      @rezagrans1296 7 лет назад +1

      No one resurfaces them anymore foo(l) lolol - sh eesh.. wht do ppl coment and say things as intended expressions, w/o practical..

    • @rezagrans1296
      @rezagrans1296 7 лет назад

      @cachem11 cont'd..
      ..merit?! It's moRe exlensive to grind and resurface than it is to just replace the rotors. What'dya live in 80s?

    • @cachem11
      @cachem11 7 лет назад +2

      Depends on the rotors. Many can survive at least 4 resurfacing and it is 50% cheaper then replacing when I did my G37 two years ago.

      just check the tires, uneven wear, align, if not just pass! No matter what the scammy mechanics nowadays say!

    Uh, setback is different than caster. this vid is basic at best.
