Man you must beat the snot out of your machine. My 13 year old Jeep that has run the Rubicon multiple times has never had an alignment done- to include after installing a lift, and I’ve never done one on any of my D2s either. I’m pretty nuts about tracking of my machines too. The S4 eats tires (I put hotrod stuff on it for my summers) but I kinda expect it to based on the type of car it is.

I just rotate all the tires at 5k or when I change the oil each time basically (except the Disco because I change the oil in those at 3k miles).
