no more toe for me

i want tires that last the better part of a year
Factory toe is okay...I'm nearly 6000 miles on my tires, and I track / autox. And I still have maybe another 3k on them if I just do street. Keep in mind I can rotate my tires though

I remember your car being totally slammed, did you ever get a proper alignment when you put those tires on?

T&P auto

GREAT place. I have gotten 6 alignments from them (constantly changing suspension, suspension settings etc) and they do a great job every time. he knows how to work on s2000's and will do any specs you want. Only $55 too... oh and if youre slammed like me you wont have a problem with there ramp (i cant get on 99% of ramps).. they have a underground space instead of the normal drive up rams.

i only recommended NTB because you can do the 3 year alignments for 150.. and do it as many times as u want.. id do firestone if those guys could actually get a lowered s2k on the rack

^^ i cant get on NTB's ramps, the the guys who work at the one by my house are complete idiots..... they told me getting more than -2 of camber was "impossible" without "camber plates" on my car. I went back TWICE and got the same answer lol.. Guess they didnt see all the bolts used to align our cars?

oh and i couldnt get on there ramps without scraping / 2x4's.

Not exactly north Dallas, but I have used Lanes Automotive in Euless for years. Dean is a racer, and will not only align it to your specs, but can give advice.
