Honda CR-V Continental PremiumContact 6 and Wheel Alignment in Adelaide
This Honda CR-V visited Autosport Tyre World Magill for 235/60R18 Continental PremiumContact 6 tyres and a wheel alignment check. On a daily family SUV, that combination matters because tyre choice and vehicle setup work together.
A premium tyre can still wear badly if the wheel alignment is wrong. That is why we look at the old wear pattern, steering feel and alignment condition when fitting new tyres.
Quick answer
When fitting 235/60R18 Continental PremiumContact 6 tyres to a Honda CR-V, wheel alignment is recommended if the old tyres are uneven, the steering wheel is off-centre, the vehicle pulls, or the owner wants to protect new tyre life from the start.

Why alignment is important on a CR-V
The Honda CR-V is often used for family driving, commuting and local errands. Those trips include roundabouts, kerbs, car parks, wet winter intersections and hot summer roads. Over time, small alignment changes can show up as shoulder wear or steering pull.
Alignment helps with:
- straight-line tracking
- steering wheel position
- even tread wear
- braking stability
- tyre life
- identifying suspension or steering issues
Why PremiumContact 6 needs correct setup
Continental PremiumContact 6 is designed for sealed-road performance and comfort. It should be fitted in the correct size, balanced properly and kept at the right pressure. If the alignment is out, the tyre may not sit squarely on the road, which can reduce comfort and shorten tyre life.
Adelaide fitment advice
Adelaide drivers often move between stop-start city roads, hills routes and freeway driving in the same week. A CR-V tyre setup should be quiet and stable, but also dependable in wet winter braking and hot-road summer use.
If the old tyres are feathered or worn on one edge, book the alignment at the same time as the new tyres.

FAQ
Can poor alignment damage new Continental tyres?
Yes. Incorrect toe or camber can wear one shoulder faster than the rest of the tread.
Does alignment affect steering feel?
Yes. A correct alignment can help the CR-V feel straighter, more settled and more predictable.
How often should a CR-V alignment be checked?
Check it when fitting new tyres, after a kerb or pothole hit, after suspension work, or whenever the vehicle pulls or wears tyres unevenly.
