a very tentative guess：katakana dictionaries do give such a phonetic entry transliterating the French rather than the English prononciation.

Practically all Web instances of アリニュウマン refer to the prehistoric alignment of menhirs (dolmens) in Brittany. All associations with vehicles and particularly tyres use the expected アライメント（or アラインメント）term.
Suggest you peruse the document to see if this was an oversight in the use of the proper term, or if that term does recurs consistently...
