I live in the south towns and am looking for a shop that can be trusted to front end handle alignments.

Best Alignment I have ever had Was from Dino tire. I know its not in the best location… but its a small mom and son shop and the owner took very good care of my car and even did my Acura alignment to my specs. Highly Recommended.

Even though the car in question may not be lowered, here’s some threads that have popped up before in regards to alignments.

I just go to firestone or monroe, they never gave me any trouble, unlike Licatas. I had aftermarket springs that lowered the car 1", extra 250$ for “custom vehicle”. Car was just fine at the other two shops for 1/4th of the price.

@**[nitroinsane](http://www.nyspeed.com/member.php?u=179)** is the manager at the Firestone on Harlem. Good guy, he’ll make sure your car is done right.

If it’s a car you plan to keep for a while I’d recommend their lifetime alignment. I get mine done once a year because our winter roads knock the shit out of cars. The lifetime alignment pays for itself in no time with the decreased tire wear you get with keeping everything aligned.
