Tire Rotation & Wheel Alignment in Hickory, NC

At Tech3 Automotive, we use computerized alignment systems and road force balancing technology to keep your vehicle driving straight, safe, and efficient. Regular tire rotations and alignments help maximize tread life, improve fuel economy, and maintain precise handling — especially for today’s ADAS-equipped vehicles.

Professional Tire Rotation Services

Tire rotation is a simple but crucial part of routine maintenance. By periodically changing the position of your tires, wear patterns are evened out — improving performance and extending tire life.

Our rotation service includes:

Front-to-back or cross rotation (as recommended)
Tire pressure check & adjustment
Brake and suspension inspection
Lug torque verification
Optional tire balancing for vibration reduction

Computerized Wheel Alignment

Proper wheel alignment ensures your vehicle’s steering and suspension components are correctly adjusted to manufacturer specifications. Even minor misalignment can lead to uneven tire wear, poor handling, and reduced safety.

Our alignment process uses

3D laser alignment technology for pinpoint precision
Caster, camber, and toe adjustments for all wheel types
Steering angle sensor calibration
Post-service road test verification

Signs you may need an alignment

Uneven or rapid tire wear
Pulling to one side while driving
Off-center steering wheel
Vibrations at highway speeds

Road Force Balancing & TPMS Service

Tech3 Automotive is equipped with Hunter Road Force® balancing technology, allowing our technicians to identify even the smallest weight imbalances or structural inconsistencies in your tires.
We also handle TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) programming, sensor replacement, and recalibration to maintain accurate monitoring across all four tires.

ADAS Calibration for Modern Vehicles

Modern vehicles equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) — such as lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control — require precise alignment and calibration.
Our specialists perform ADAS recalibration after any alignment or suspension service to ensure your safety systems function exactly as intended.
