Where to go for alignment?

ksagis · 10-27-2013, 05:51 PM

Any advice on where to go for an alignment? Car has Swift Spec-R springs and searched forum and didn't notice if there are any nuances to going to dealer, Firestone, etc.

I'm in Pasadena, SoCal if anybody has a recommendation of where to go.

If they have an NTB in Cali... that's where i took my car every time. But you do have to watch the monkey in the back so he doens't scratch your wheels with the clamp on alignment pieces.
EDIT: NTB is called BIG-O in california.

However, they offer a 3 year alignment for like $150. I took my car there 20 times and they didn't blink an eye.

Not only that, but i gave them custom alignment specs and they're all good w them.

will NTB adjust aftermarket camber/toe parts?

Corner 3 Garage in Laguna Hills.
West End Alignment in Gardena.
JC Auto House in Temple City.

Nothing but great experiences from those three places.

^All very good shops, I hear nothing but good things about them.

My favorite place to go for alignment in North OC area is 714 Tires in Westminster because they're closest to me and I've been going there for a few years.

Yup, they let me get my levels even on coils and adjusted camber plates as well

I'd find out where local auto-xers like to go and go there.

I got lifetime alignment from Firestone, no issues
