$85 for Rear Camber Install and Alignment?

i got quoted a price of $85 to do a rear camber kit installation and a wheel alignment at a shop around my way... does this price sound a little too cheap to you guys? should i steer away from this shop?
thanks

Just a rear alignment? That usually isn't that expensive.

Plus rear kit installation isn't that hard, either. Just two bolts and voila. Very easy installation with power tools. Why not call another place and see what they quote you? If there's a huge difference, then you might have to ask this place why so cheap.

That is super cheap. An alignment alone will cost at least $75.

Do the back tires wear out more faster than the front on this car???? I have been getting my tires rotated by the dealership on a regular basis and my tires on the front (which came from the back) are just baby ass smooth on the inside. I have a 05 with 13k on it and about 9k of those are lowered miles.

I assume the alignment will be done on all 4 wheels. If that is the case, the price is very good.... at least in Northen California.

I get charged 50 for alignment and with a camber kit 100, the install isn't that hard but the total seems kinda low to me.
