NYC's best price wheel alignment $45 most cars at our locations. Quick facts article! All drivers need to keep their wheels aligned: How often?Realistically, this is needed in our "severe driving conditions" about two times a year depending on mileage. Why? Wheels become misaligned because you hit bad road conditions like potholes on NYC streets. What happens if I don't align my wheels?Your tires will wear unevenly, steering usually suffers and you may notice a pulling sensation or vibration. Your tire life may be shortened because of uneven wear and front end parts become compromised. Our expert technicians use 3-D state-of-the-art computer equipment to analyze your vehicle's alignment and provide you with a detailed report so that you can make an informed decision. Wheel alignments are critical especially in Queens, Brooklyn, NYC and on Long Island because of the conditions on our roads. PERHAPS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM? TWO WORDS? POT H ... read more

By definition, your spare tire is exactly that, a spare in case of an emergency. Meanwhile while we wait for an emergency, we forget to check on our spare tire simply because it's not needed........yet. And when it's needed, it might not be ready to do its job because many of us don't do what we have to do to keep our cars, tires, brakes, etc in good condition....in a word: maintenance. The problem with that kind of thinking is that it's not preventative as is, unfortunately, a lot of maintenance issues. The whole concept of preventative car care is to avoid accidents, get the best performance, stay prepared for situations that come up unexpected, avoid costly repairs and situations and extend the life of our car and its tires. Think about it. Isn't it a pain when your car doesn't start on a cold morning? But, when have you had your car battery checked last? Batteries have a life expectancy. How old is yours? Same with your spare tire....It's there, you know it and we all ignore it an ... read more

Advice from the 106 St pros... We bet you thought the word is caliber, right? As in .45mm? Hey, we're from the 'hood, too, so we understand. However, the word is caliper and each brake has one but does your ride have 2 or 4. That depends on type of braking system you have. Check your owners manual if you don't know. Don't have it, download it by Googling year, make and model for your car bible. Brake calipers are one of several important parts composing your braking system, and, for God's sake, this is NYC. Queens epitomizes the "severe" driving conditions we speak of often here in this blog...crowded roads, stop and go traffic, sudden stops, NYers in a rush to dart out into traffic to test your brakes and sue your you know what, etc. Pass this test, friends, don't leave home without a good braking system. The combinations of brake pads and brake calipers perform a huge safety task. They change your vehicle's motion to a stop...a fast stop, a screechin ... read more
