pist off after i got back......
ust got back from TRYING to get an alignment. the guy says after an hour and a half, we cant do it. they also said they could not balance my tires cause they are 18's.
question: last time i brought my car to the dealer i complained about a noise from the right front tire and they did not fix it as i heard the noise when i picked it up. then today the guy said there was something wrong with the front right tire. the frist time i went to the dealer i had my stocks on now i have aftermarket, will there be a problem you think?

Go to Park Avenue Acura.
Jens had to apply masking TAPE on my wheels and then attach RUBBER feet on the instruments to get them to fit.
The tape and rubber were because the clamping device didn’t open large enough for my 18” wheel and he had to attach it on the INSIDE of the lip.
All this while trying to avoid scratching the Chrome.
It took longer to set up the (4) sensors then it did to do the alignment.
I drove 90-miles to get there.
I think you’re closer then that.

There are alignment shops that deal with 18" wheels all day long....there's an alignment shop out here called Network alignment that aligned my friends Expo with 22s, no questions asked. Sometimes the dealers just aren't used to anything but factory components, so they may not be the best place to go for these type of circumstances. I'd agree with Shawn S and go to Park Ave Acura if you only want a dealer to touch your car. They seem to be very knowledgeable.
