At Promex Tire and Auto in Newport, NH, we understand the importance of proper wheel alignment for your vehicle. Our team of experienced technicians is dedicated to providing top-notch wheel alignment services to ensure your vehicle’s safety and performance on the road. We use our Hunter alignment machine for every front end and wheel alignment, and several shops in the area that don’t do alignments send that work to us.
Wheel alignment, also known as tire alignment, refers to the adjustment of the angles of your vehicle’s wheels to the manufacturer’s specifications. Proper alignment ensures that your vehicle’s tires make optimal contact with the road, leading to better handling, improved fuel efficiency, and extended tire life.
An alignment adjusts three main angles:
Whether the fronts of the tires point in or out when viewed from above. Incorrect toe is one of the fastest ways to wear out tires.
The inward or outward tilt of the tire when viewed from the front. Too much tilt wears one edge of the tread.
The angle of the steering pivot when viewed from the side. It affects steering stability and how the wheel returns to center.
Over time, components of your vehicle’s suspension system can wear out, leading to misalignment.
Impact from potholes, curbs, or other road hazards can knock your wheels out of alignment. Around Newport, winter freeze-thaw cycles and mud season leave frost heaves and potholes on Route 10, Route 11, and local back roads, which makes this one of the most common causes we see.
Any modifications made to your vehicle’s suspension system can affect wheel alignment.
Worn tie rods and other steering parts let your wheels drift out of position, making it hard for an alignment to hold until those parts are addressed.
At Promex Tire and Auto, we’re committed to delivering top-quality service and ensuring your vehicle performs at its best. That’s why every wheel alignment in our shop is done on our Hunter alignment machine.
Before we align anything, we check your tires, suspension, and steering parts. Worn components won’t hold an alignment, so catching them first means your alignment lasts and your money isn’t wasted.
Our Hunter alignment machine measures your vehicle’s current wheel angles. Our technicians then adjust toe, camber, and caster where your vehicle allows, bringing them back to manufacturer specifications.
Not every repair shop in the area does alignments, and several of them send that work to us. It’s the same precise, honest work we give every driver who comes through our door.
Our Hunter alignment machine measures and adjusts your wheel angles to manufacturer specs, so you leave with confidence that your vehicle is tracking straight and your tires are wearing evenly. Give us a call, and we’ll get you scheduled.

Common signs include pulling to one side, an off-center steering wheel, uneven tire wear, tire squeal in normal turns, and loose or wandering steering.
Misalignment is a common cause, but pulling can also come from uneven tire pressure, worn tires, worn suspension or steering parts, or a sticking brake caliper. An inspection finds the actual cause.
Many technicians recommend an alignment check about once a year, and any time you install replacement tires, have suspension or steering work done, or hit a pothole or curb hard. Your owner’s manual may list a specific interval.
Yes. When the wheels aren’t pointed correctly, the tires scrub against the road instead of rolling cleanly. That wears the tread unevenly and can shorten tire life significantly.
