Default They're shot, completely shot. I held out as long as I could, but it's time...
They rattle loudly over even the slightest bumps.

Default I dunno, I personally probably wouldn't worry about it,
Or I'd replace a bunch of other stuff that forced me to get an alignment at the same time.

What, see if your tires get ruined? I remember something about ounces and pounds and prevention.
