XI Alignment question

I just got new tires all around, and I thought it would be a good idea to get an alignment since it has 92k on it.

Is there anything I need to look for in a shop before I start calling around, or is the xi similar to RWD models. I don't want to throw the shop for a surprise.

Besides having the shop start with the rear. Not really.

You might get a song and dance that they can't adjust front camber due to the "special tool" needed. But if it's a good shop that deal with euros. You shouldn't have an issue

For me, Firestone laser aligned all 4 with a before/after printout and lifetime warranty for around $100. By "lifetime warranty" they mean I can bring it in as often as every 6 months to have another alignment done for free, even if needs to be totally redone after suspension work, etc. Seems like a good deal. The tech even did front camber. An autoparts store was sponsoring a grill in the parking lot so I just hungout eating free food and watched the entire job.
