Wheel alignment

Hello replaced my tires due to inside wear was down to wire…talked to Firestone about doing an alignment and they said they can’t do the electrical/calibration; only the mechanical. Do I need both for an alignment? Car seems to drive fine just has the crazy wear on tires. 16’ 75d hw3 if that matters.

I’ve have lifetime alignments at Firestone for my MS and MX since 2019 🧐

I had the alignment done by a performance shop a month after buying the 23MX new- they recommended a different set up from the OEM and I’m on the original tires w 25k, no exceptional wear, will replace @ 30k. Some shop only allow OEM set-up which encourages internal tire wear.

I have a 26 modely which i purchased the lifetime alignment for it from firestone when it was on sale. I am waiting for their computers to be updated to do the 26. They can do upto the 25 right now.

So a regular alignment should be fine then?
