Where to get a wheel Alignment in NY/NJ area thas cheap and reputable, and also, how much? I'm sure Dealer rapes you on this service. The only place I coudl think about was Sears.

It is definetely not the price alone. I always go to mechanic who used to work for me, if I can get a deal - fine (he works for Kimmel tire - part of the chain), but even if I pay full price - I know it's done right, and he checks my caster every time - something most other people, including dealer, don't bother doing. BTW, having you caster checked by mechanic is just another way to tell how good he is.

you can go to most tire places or anywhere that changes tires. Their alignment is usually around $49 or so. ETD in Hillsdale charges me $39 but usually it's $49. Not too bad, definitely better then the $90 at the dealer.

I just got it done at Mavis for 50 bux with tax and crap. They rebalanced all my wheels for free, and told me he got it to 1/100ths due to me having some bends in my rims, causing me to feel some vibrations in the steering wheel. Over all not bad ne more. I thought the vibrations were due to my new conti extreme tires.
