What is back wheel alignment? The majority of vehicles today (cars, small SUVs, and vans) require a four-wheel alignment, including front wheel alignment and back wheel alignment. Some vehicles with solid rear axles can only have their front wheels aligned. But even in the case of two-wheel alignments, your technician can check the rear tires for damage that may compromise your car's handling.

Do I need a wheel alignment on the rear wheels? Regardless of whether they're 4WD, front-wheel-drive, or rear-wheel-drive, most cars and many SUVs today are four-wheel alignable. These vehicles should get a four-wheel alignment because the rear is just as likely to be out of alignment and cause uneven tire wear as the front.
