Does the steering wheel straightening mean the wheels are straight?

[StCody]

Generally, it takes one and a half turns to return the steering wheel to the straight position after turning it to the limit. This means that if you are unsure whether your wheels have straightened, you can first turn the steering wheel completely to the limit and then turn it back one and a half turns. This ensures the wheels are in the straightened position. Consequences of not straightening the wheels when parking: If you don't straighten the steering wheel when parking, the pressure on the sidewalls of the tires will increase. Because the car is tilted, the normal stress continuously acts on the tie rod, tie rod rack, and steering gear. Under the prolonged influence of these three forces without release, premature aging issues may occur over time. Methods to straighten the wheels when parking: After parking, you can stick your head out of the window to check the tires and straighten them by turning slightly. Once the vehicle is stationary, you can shift into P or D gear and let the car move slightly to determine if the wheels are straight.
