Also, definately get an alignment because you dont want to wear out those babies... oh and also maybe the tires arent properly balenced _____________________________ ---2Fast4U--- JLT2 CAI, Brenspeed tune, 4.10's Eibach Pro Kit BMR Adjustable LCA's One empty credit card BoomTube crew member.

First off, a tire shake is never caused by alignment. Shake in the steering wheel is most likely from a front tire being out of balance. Hopefully it isnt from loose lugnuts, check that as well. The only way to check that the alignment is out is tire wear or a pull. Usually a pull is from the caster being out, caster is a non tire wearing adjustment and the caster adjustment on a mustang is very little. you will most likely get a pull from a mustang the wider of tire you put on. Second and third are toe and camber. These usually show wear on the inside and outside shoulders of the tread on a tire. You usually cant feel these adjustments being out.
