Richmond Rainy Evening Lane Changes: Why Alignment Drift Gets Worse

During rainy Richmond rush hour, small alignment issues become obvious because wet pavement reduces tire grip and magnifies steering corrections. If your wheel feels off-center or the car drifts during lane changes, tire wear can accelerate long before the problem feels dangerous. Catching this early helps protect tread life and improves braking stability in slick conditions. A same-week alignment check is usually cheaper than replacing prematurely worn tires caused by unnoticed drift. For a related symptom, review steering wheel off-center after a pothole.
