Alignment!!

I'm actually planning to get my alignment done in a couple of days because I just installed my comptech camber kits. I was thinking about bringing it to Les Schwab for them to do it, because they adjusted my kit pretty good when I brought my civic there. Where would you guys bring it? Or for those who already had an alignment done where "did" you bring it?

P.S. I'm trying to get the best alignment.

I took mine to Firestone and got a Lifetime Alignment...$150 for alignments for as long as I own the car...not a bad deal. I had it on my last car (got it on sale then), and it more than pays for itself. It's also good at any corporate owned Firestone in the US (2,000+).

The only catch is I'm not sure if they have the alignment specs for the ASPEC in their computer, so I take a copy with me when I go in...just in case. But the folks there are really nice (and knowledgeable)...they don't seem to mind and everything always checks out. Plus, they have equipment to handle up to 22's or 24's, so no problems with my 19's (and they don't scratch them, either).

Thats pretty cool. I just got home from the dealership. I called them and they told me they just got a brand new alignment machine. They use to take it to another shop to do their alignments. Since they know the specs and stuff I just decided to go to them. Thanx!

as long as they know what they are doing your fine,
the alignment computer has specs downloaded in it for each car (factory specs)
very easy to do
they should give you a print out when they are done ,having before and after specs ,with factory specs telling exactly what they did,if you dont get it ,they are screwing you ,,,
