The cost of an alignment typically ranges from around $50 to $168 for a complete wheel alignment service. A front-end (two-wheel) alignment usually costs between $50 and $75, while a four-wheel alignment tends to be more expensive, generally between $100 and $168. The price can vary based on factors such as the type of vehicle (luxury or specialty cars may cost more), location, and whether additional services like tire balancing or suspension repairs are needed. Some places also offer lifetime alignment packages for a higher upfront cost, allowing for repeated adjustments as needed.
