I don't have the tools or skills to do this, so I called up a local shop that I always go to for anything concerning my cars, they're great people. I just got quoted 99.95 for an aligment though, when I don't even know if I really, truly need it. My car pulls slightly to the right, and my wheel is cocked a few degrees left to maintain straightness. I really only care about excess tire wear that this could cause, the fact that my wheel is crooked isn't really important.
The shop said it was this expensive because all four wheels have to be aligned. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

well.. my place here has this money in the mail thingy.. there's this chain.. MIDAS.. i dont know whether you guys heard of them before but normally alignment would be $99.99 before tax.. but if you have the coupon.. its only like $49.99 before tax.. i've done my alignment twice know and i think i need to do the 3rd time coz of my strut mount.. have to remove my whole strut so its easier to replace the strut mount.. the 1st time was when i installed my tein sprins & new kyb struts.. 2nd time was when i installed new bump stops..
so yup.. $100's about right but i dont like paying retail.. who does actually.. |
