HELP HELP HELP
hey guys i just got some yokohama avid h4s and theyre pretty nice. well anyways i told wheelworks(thats where i bought them and i got it installed) to align my car... well they didnt do it on the first day when my tires were installed and i brought it to them the next day. so they "align" my car. this was saturday.
i drive on the highways alot and ive noticed that my car veers to the right when my wheel is straight. so i thought maybe its the road. but i went out to a pretty flat road and it still hooks. im beginning to think that they didnt align my car at all and that they just jipped me.
heres my question. ive heard that driving ur car unaligned f.ucks up ur wheels. true? cause i spent a great deal of money and i dont want to screwed when my tires have premature tire wear... do i have a chance in getting new tires when i bring up my alignment? if so what can i say to make this happen...
this whole thing is pissing me off cause i had to make several favors and wasted my time going there the second time.
its a long read i know. but any input i would appreciate.
thanks guys/girls

did you get an alignment report sheet? it should tell you the specs before and after the alignment.. what i would do is go back and tell them your car is leaning that way..
