Alignment - NoiSeeVT - 11-12-2008
I just threw on my winters and noticed that I have a bit of odd wear on the tires so I want get an alignmnet done, just wondering what the going rate is for a 4 wheel alignment?
Any thing to remember or watch out for when aligning an SVT?
Thanks

Its about $90, go to a local shop.

I had mine done yesterday actually. $75.
I'd ask around in your area and find somebody reputable. You could always check the dealer to, as I know the dealers in my area sometimes run alignment specials.

Uhm... do NOT go to CT. PLEASE. After my latest mishap with them, I really can't recommend that anyone should go there.

Unless you know somebody on the inside, I wouldn't let CT touch one of my cars...

Get a stealership to do it, or take it to a tire shop like OK tire or Firestone and get the 4-wheel done. I got my alignment done 2x during the time I had the ZX3, and it was around $90 each time. I still have to get a 4-wheel alignment done to my Escape, which is probably going to be a little bit more...

Shouldn't be any more, as the Escape is a unibody.
I'd contact Frisby tire on Merivale for an alignment on it...

All good advice ... also: whatever shop you choose ask them what kind of machine they have and how often it is calibrated ... if they don't know or it was calibrated more than 6 or 7 months ago, continue shopping around.

and make sure they will provide you with a before and after printout. If they offer 2 wheel alignment run away fast!

isn't it easy to do it yourself? I changed all 4 winter tires really easy.
