BMW M2 Four-Wheel Alignment After AD09 Tyres Adelaide
Quick answer
Yes. A BMW M2 should have a four-wheel alignment after fitting Yokohama ADVAN AD09 tyres, especially with a staggered package such as 255/35R19 front and 275/35R19 rear. Alignment helps protect the new tyres and gives the car a proper baseline.
Performance tyres make poor alignment easier to feel and often more expensive to ignore.

What four-wheel alignment checks
Four-wheel alignment checks the vehicle as a complete chassis, not just the front wheels. On a BMW M2, this matters because rear alignment influences traction, stability and tyre wear.
A proper check includes steering wheel centre, front toe, rear toe, camber readings, tyre pressure baseline and visible suspension condition.
Why AD09 tyres deserve a clean baseline
Yokohama ADVAN AD09 tyres are designed for performance response. If toe is wrong, they can scrub. If camber is not suitable, they can wear unevenly. If tyre pressures are neglected, the car can lose the balance the owner paid for.
Alignment is a practical way to protect the tyre investment.
When to book alignment
Book alignment after fitting new tyres, after changing suspension height, after hitting a kerb or pothole, or when the car starts pulling, tramlining or wearing tyres unevenly.
For Adelaide M2 owners, alignment before a spirited Adelaide Hills drive or track day is also sensible.

FAQ
Is front alignment enough for a BMW M2?
No. Four-wheel alignment is the better starting point because rear toe and camber matter on a rear-wheel-drive performance car.
Can bad alignment ruin AD09 tyres?
Yes. Incorrect toe or unsuitable camber can wear performance tyres faster than expected.
Should I align before or after fitting tyres?
Usually after fitting the new tyres, unless there is a known suspension issue that needs checking first.
