2016 Subaru BRZ Alignment

These symptoms can indicate that the wheels are outside their intended alignment angles. Wheels that are out of alignment scrub the tires as the vehicle rolls, which can affect tread wear and steering feel. Mike Shaw Subaru in Thornton can measure the angles before recommending an adjustment.

• The vehicle pulls on a flat road.
• The steering wheel sits off center while driving straight.
• One edge of a tire wears faster than the other.

The inspection also includes the tires, steering, and suspension components for wear that could hold the alignment out of specification. Booking an appointment gets the current angles measured against the factory specification, so you learn whether an adjustment is needed before paying for one.

• Camber, caster, and toe measurement on all four wheels.
• Inspection of tires, steering, and suspension components.
• Adjustment toward manufacturer specification where the suspension allows.

That inspection can help identify wear or impact-related changes that may affect alignment. Thornton and Denver’s northern suburbs experience busy 104th Avenue traffic, road construction, and seasonal winter conditions, so steering or tire-wear changes are useful reasons to request an alignment measurement. Schedule service when symptoms appear rather than waiting for uneven wear to progress.

• Steering and suspension inspection: every 15,000 miles.
• Alignment measurement after pulling or off-center steering appears.
• Tire inspection when wear develops along one edge.

Mike Shaw Subaru inspects the tires, steering, and suspension before recommending an adjustment. If a component has wear, the technician can explain how it affects the measured angles and what should be addressed. This approach helps distinguish an alignment correction from a condition that may require additional repair.

• Steering components are checked for wear.
• Suspension components are inspected before adjustment.
• Tires are examined for uneven tread wear.

A BRZ that tracks straight may not need an adjustment at every service visit. However, measuring the current angles can show whether the wheels remain within the manufacturer's specification. The inspection also checks for tire, steering, and suspension wear that could affect alignment results.

• Measure camber, caster, and toe before adjusting.
• Look for edge wear across the tires.
• Inspect steering and suspension components for wear.

Next, the technician measures camber, caster, and toe on all four wheels. Where the suspension allows, the angles are adjusted back toward the manufacturer's specification. The measurement provides a clear answer about whether an adjustment is needed before you pay for one. It also helps connect symptoms such as pulling on a flat road or an off-center steering wheel with the vehicle's current alignment condition.

Local driving conditions can bring frequent changes in steering and tire behavior. Morning and evening traffic slows along 104th Avenue, while winter weather and preparation for mountain travel make tire condition especially important. Spring and summer trips may also bring road travel toward the foothills. If the BRZ begins pulling, the steering wheel is no longer centered, or one tire edge wears faster, an alignment measurement can help identify the cause.

The service also includes inspection of the tires, steering, and suspension components. Worn parts can affect the readings or make it difficult for an alignment to remain within specification. A BRZ that pulls to one side, has an off-center steering wheel, or develops faster wear on one tire edge should be evaluated rather than aligned by assumption.

The manufacturer's maintenance schedule calls for inspecting the steering and suspension every 15,000 miles. Bring your 2016 Subaru BRZ to Mike Shaw Subaru in Thornton for a factory-spec alignment — schedule service.
