Seeking an Alignment

Any recommendations on alignments in the Central Mass area?

If you're not looking for a track/specialty alignment then I would call around to a few of the chain places to see if they'll handle it. I've had great alignment experiences at both Firestone and Town Fair Tire (RI & SE MA) when I was lowered on aftermarket wheels, they also obliged to my request of maxing out rear camber to -3*.

Thanks... i'm going to start calling around. I don't trust Town Fair.. You never know who the tech is, how much training they've had and if they give a $hi+.

-3 degrees.. How was your tire wear?

Not bad at all, that level of camber isn't that excessive. Toe being out of whack is really what leads to premature wear.

I agree regarding Town Fair, just because I've had a couple good experiences (only one alignment) doesn't mean you will.
