Alignment on my F10 M5?

DRVGRMN · 08-20-2019, 09:44 AM

My question is.... does my car have to go to BMW or can a regular alignment shop set my wheels? I have this issue with my Audi. My alignment isn't "bad" but, does need to be done. I am getting slight ware on my front right wheel.

I brought my M5, as well as my previous BMW, Mercedes and Audi cars, to a reputable wheel and tire shop that works regularly on German and Italian cars for alignments. I've had great experiences. The other alternative is a reputable Indy Shop. Hope this helps and Good Luck.

yea, that's happens to be my issue. I lived in Houston and now I am in Dickinson,Nd. and these people dont know how to live. So I have very few if any options. Friday I am taking a long over due trip to Audi of Bozeman (MT. 7 hr drive). Have to use Vacation time to do any servicing that I can't do myself. I have found a Euro Shop here, well at least not one I would trust with my cars.

Found these guys. Might worth some due diligence as it's roughly 100 miles from you. http://maaseuroworx.com

get an alignment as soon as possible, you probably don't want to spend money having to buy new tires.
