A few months ago I replaced the left front hub assembly on my wife's 2001 Sport. I originally thought it was a flat spot on one of the two front tires.. until the guy at the tire store showed me otherwise. So thanks to this form and a coupon code that I found on dealnews.com I was able to replace the hub assembly for less than $70. Thanks guys!!
Now back at the same tire store to replace the other other two tires and they pointed out some inside wear on one of the tires and they discovered that one of the rims was bent. I could not confirm that the tire in question came from the newly replaced hub assembly and/or if it belonged to the bent rim. I was not allowed in the shop area. However, the tire guy asked if I had the front end aligned after I replaced the hub assembly. I told him no... I didn't think it was necessary.. What do you guys think?
