Which comes first, alignment or new tires?
Yes, you can get an alignment before buying new tires. It doesn’t matter whether you get your alignment before or after having your new tires put on. If your alignment is off, your tires can wear out unevenly and much faster than they should. Even if your car felt fine before, installing new tires changes how your vehicle sits and rides. Any small misalignment might not have been noticeable with worn tires, but it can become a problem with new tread.
Should all 4 tires be replaced together?
It is recommended to replace all four at once because your tires are key to the performance and handling of your vehicle, it’s important for them to be as identical as possible. If your tires don’t match, one end of your vehicle may not be able to respond as quickly as the other, making it difficult to control. If you are replacing only two tires on your vehicle, the new tires will probably have a deeper tread depth than the older tires. Mixing different tread depths is generally permissible. The tire industry recommends fitting the new tires onto the rear axle.If your tires have moderate wear, replacing two might be the smarter and safer option. In this case, replace the two on the same axle, and again, if you’re only replacing two, put the new ones on the rear. That helps reduce the risk of spinning out during hard braking or in wet conditions.
