A car is like a pet chicken—without proper attention, it may wind up stolen and sold for parts. Care for your automobile the way you would a fine-feathered friend with today’s Groupon: for $49, you get a four-wheel alignment at Star Tire and Wheels in West Haven (a $99 value). This Groupon value is valid for wheels up to 17 inches, and a $30 fee will apply to wheels 18 inches or larger.

As a full-service repair shop, Star Tire and Wheels has kept cars cruising for nearly three decades. The four-wheel alignment properly lines up an automobile’s four rubber shoes, ensuring that wheels don’t resist the driver’s commands, such as “turn right” and “stop, drop, and roll.” Properly aligned tires increase fuel mileage by curbing gas-guzzling rolling resistance and extend tire life by minimizing wear and tear. The vehicle-reviving procedure takes approximately one hour, about the same amount of time it takes to crabwalk from New Hampshire to Vermont.
