- Well, yes it could, but after an accident it could be a whole lot more besides.
- Have your alignment checked, a full four wheel alignment is more expensive but
- should be worth it in your case - it's cheaper than new tires anyway. You
- might also car to check wheel balance in case you bent one in the accident (you
- don't mention the severity of the accident, but I guess you lived to tell the
- tale ;-))
-
- Hope this helps some (These two cents worth are my very own)
- Cheers,
- Steve.
