    Default How to change alignment?

    So I haven't hit any curbs or anything like that and all of the sudden today i realize my steering wheel shakes at 130+ on the highway

    Is it possible the minit lube guy changed something to fuck with me?

    sounds like your tires could be out of balance.

    Maybe you have a bulge in one of your tires or one of them is not balanced properly. I can't see alignment causing shakes. And I doubt the guy at minit lube had anything to do with it.

    Do they do alignments ata minit lube? If not, what would they gain? Secondly, I doubt very much that someone would take the time to fuck with your alignment while you're getting an oil change.

    There are lot's of things that can contribute to bad alignment. Go get it looked at at garage.

    A broken belt in a tire will also cause that, had one that only shook at high speed....
