Okay guys I got a nice nail right in my tire... Of course it was where the tire flexes so I need a new tire. ANyway Do you think that i need an alignment after replacing the tire? It is my rear passenger side....

 

i was wondering the samething. i had to replace my driver front with a new one, andd was wondering what about it being awd with a new bigger tire but they said its fine and no need for an alignment.

 

Tires should always be replaced in pairs....

 

d@mn, thas what i thought but they only did the one cause road hazzard, well how bad is that?

 

If yor tires are worn, you will definitely need to buy a pair instead of just one.

 

Nope my tires were not worn so I only had to replace one but what about the alignment?

 

why would you need an allignment if you're just replacing a tire?

 

u dont need a alignment if ur replacing ur tire, unless ur tire is wearing incorrectly

 

On AWD cars, if one tire is replaced and all other 3 are old (not the same diameter) you have to replace all 4 tires. I read it in Cars and Drives about a few months back. If you don't do that you will pay more $$ when you center diff is destroyed.
