how do i know if i ruined my alignment? a few weeks ago i lost control and went up a curb and my front left tire popped. i'm wondering if i ruined my alignment. i drove it but it kept pulling straight. so i'm not sure. what do you guys think i should check/do? thanks in advance.

 

If you hit a curb hard enough to pop a tire then yes, you should have an alignment done.
Make sure you tell the shop about the curb so they can look for damage.

 

if you feel your car pulling to one side..........or just go get an alignment done and they will tell you

 

AND CHECK YOUR RIMS TO SEE IF THEIR BENT!!! Believe it or not, ALL my rims are bent ever so slightly. One is bent more than the others. All I have hit is POT HOLES No curbs (not hard, bit just curb scraped) or road trash.

The fancy warranty I bought only covers the rim if it WILL NOT HOLD AIR! You could be wobbling down the road and it would be OK! WHF?

I did get a tire replaced and that almost paid for the whole warranty

 

That's what I meant by asking them look for damage.

A good shop will look for any kind of damage, including bent wheels, but only if you tell them you hit a curb.

If you just ask them to check the alignment that's all they'll do, unless the damage shows up in their measurements.
