A Firestone alignment costs about $100 to $130, or $200 to $260 for life
Firestone sells two kinds of alignment. A standard alignment is one visit and usually costs about $100 to $130. The lifetime alignment plan costs about $200 to $260 once, then Firestone realigns that car for free for as long as you own it. One mechanic puts it at about $110 for one alignment and $230 for the lifetime plan, so the plan pays off after about two visits.

What changes your price
- One visit or lifetime. The lifetime plan costs about twice as much up front.
- Your car. Trucks, SUVs and luxury cars can cost more.
- Your store. Prices differ between Firestone stores.
- Coupons. Firestone often has $20 off the lifetime plan.
- Parts. Worn steering or suspension parts must be fixed first, at extra cost.
- Camera and sensor calibration. Newer cars may need it, and it is billed separately.
Is the lifetime alignment worth it?
Gearhead Grove, written by an ASE certified mechanic, divides the lifetime price by the one visit price. At about $230 for the plan and about $110 for one alignment, the plan pays for itself after about two visits. If you will need two or more alignments on the same car, the lifetime plan saves money.
There are rules. The plan is tied to one car and works only at Firestone and Tires Plus stores. Gearhead Grove says you must come back for a check every 6 months or 6,000 miles to keep it active, and that Firestone can void it if you miss that. It usually covers all four wheels when your car allows it.
Firestone describes the plan as a lifetime limited warranty, meaning it will realign your car whenever you need it, for free, for as long as you own it. WheelAlignmentCost.com adds that camera and radar calibration on newer cars is not covered and is charged on its own, so ask about that up front.

How to judge the price you are quoted
- Ask for the one visit price and the lifetime price side by side.
- Ask if any parts need to be replaced before the alignment.
- Ask if your car needs camera or sensor calibration, and what it costs.
- Compare with $100 to $130 for one alignment.
Ways to pay less
- Check the Firestone offers page for alignment coupons before you book.
- Buy the lifetime plan only if you will keep the car for years.
- Get the alignment when you buy new tires, when coupons are often bigger.
- Keep up with the 6 month checks so your lifetime plan stays active.
