Wheel alignment shop in Baltimore area?
 

Looking for a reputable shop in the baltimore area for wheel alignments and TPMS programming for Nissan vehicles.

I've called several places such as IAG in Wesminster, JE Performance off of Rt.40, Hills Garage, AAM, but none of these performance shops have the capability to do wheel alignments. I've searched through the forum, but to no avail. I really don't want to take my car to a Mr. Tire or similar place.

Can anyone recomend a good shop in the Baltimore area or places north?

Well I got mine done at Nissan of Bowie for like $80. Their alignment machine is GT-R certified so you shouldn't have any issues :tup:

I've been using these guys Neubauer's Auto Repair | Route 29, Route 40 Auto Repair | Ellicott City Maryland and have been happy with their work. They mounted/balanced my new wheels and installed my sports brakes so far. Family business and they're all good people, very friendly and know what they're doing.

What do you mean IAG can't do an alignment? Hell they'll do an alignment and corner balance it if you want while you sit in your car.

Yes but their schedule is really busy right now. They told me they wouldn't be able to take my car until June and that they don't have the TPMS tool for Nissans. I'll call the place that Andrew recommended and get a quote.

Wow, somebody's not hurting for business it sounds like.

I've heard some decent things about this shop from a few local people.
They're right down the street from my house too.
Might check them out once I get my car running again.

It may be too far for you but PTuning is locate in Manassas, VA.
We can do any alignment and we have the state of art alignment as well.

Here a link: Virginia, Maryland, Wheel Alignment, Custom, Factory, Lowered Vehicle | PTUNING (877-788-6464)

If you need appointment soon, I be gladly to take care of that for you.

Thanks for all the replies. Wound up taking it to Agile Auto Performance up in Fallston, MD. Waiting for it to be completed right now.

====================================Update======== ============================

Agile did a great job with my alignment! Was surprised how far off some of the values were (mostly the right side toe). Their tool couldn't do the TPMS reset so I called several tire places (NTB, Mr.Tire, etc.) but none could handle Nissans so I called the Merchant's Tire near my house and in about 10 mins. the tech set my new TPMS sensors. He used a simple handheld tool (about the size of a OBDII scan tool) and went to each wheel and read the sensor information for each sensor. Once all sensors readings were collected he connected the tool via cable to my OBDII port and updated the ECU. Wound up charging me $50 for it, which is cheaper than the dealer (they wanted >$100). I've heard of some people getting it done for free at other places though.

Reason I state all of this is that people seem to be throwing out lots of misinformation on how to go about syncing up new TPMS sensors. I've read people saying that the tire needs to be dismounted and the sensor code read directly off the sensor. This is not true, they can scan the sensor when it's mounted inside the wheel. I've also seen the method of programming the new sensors using the wire near the OBDII harness and tapping it 5 times to ground and such, but was too lazy to try this so couldn't confirm that method.

Glad it all work out smoothly. :tup:

Zole, so they only charged you $50 to do the alignment? that sounds like an excellent deal to me.

No sounds like the TPMS reset was $50 in addition to the alignment cost.

Mind telling me how much was the alignment? I got my spacers installed and my rear wheels are sitting at a angle now. Feel like my rear are wearing unevenly

Agile charges $125 for the performance all wheel alignment (tolerances to 1/100th). If you get the basic alignment, I think it's about $100.

Blades is correct, since their tool could not update my car for the new TPMS sensors I had to take it somewhere else (merchants tire), where they charged me $50.

Thanks for posting that info..:tup:
