Looking to have coilovers installed in Austin, TX

daysleeprx · 01-27-2011, 06:43 PM

Hi guys,

Tried to do a search for some local shops but the the threads I found were over a year old.

Looking for a place to install some coilovers and align as well. I tried Soulspeed but their price seemed a little high. Just wondering if I could do better or not.

Thanks!

They've installed at least 3 or 4 coilovers for locals that I know of....they are a little on the expensive side but they know what they're doing.

I would also try contacting Terry Sayther, personally never used them before but people always reference them.

Hand down Soulspeed.

Honestly, my only reason for not going with SoulSpeed is because they wanted to charge me a 20% fee for not buying the parts from them. I didn't see that stated anywhere on their website, and have never had a place charge me such a fee before.

Was just a little off-putting.

Ya that sucks. My friend told me about their "upcharge" a few months back. They used to not to do that though......

If you find another reliable shop let us know!! I need to get new rear tires mounted soon and that 20% upcharge is putting me off as well.....

Jacob we don't do any tire related stuff at this time. Our friends next store at Wheel Tech can mount your tires for you though. Their number is 512-339-9036. They can also do paint correction fix curbed wheels if need be

Jaron,

Thanks. I've been to Wheel Tech before. They can do mounting tires but they do not do road force balancing.
