Plan an alignment every 2–3 years or about every 30,000 miles, and sooner after suspension work or a major pothole impact.
For a performance-focused coupe like the 2018 Lexus RC 300, alignment intervals help maintain crisp steering and even tire wear. North Texas roads and construction zones can accelerate misalignment after curbs or rough patches. Our Grapevine team can inspect and advise if you need it now or can wait.

Common signs include uneven tire wear, the car pulling left or right, an off-center steering wheel, and vibration at speed.
