Does anyone know where I can get my car corner balanced? Do alignment shops do this?

When someone says alignment shop around here, I think "West-End Alignment" in Torrance -- seems like the guy there Darin (sp?) does it all, and does it well. Someone else here should have his address and contact info.

He does have corner scales; no problem for him to corner balance.

When your car is corner balanced it is weighed at all 4 corners/wheels. The person who is corner balancing the car can equalize or nearly equalize the weight distribution on all 4 /corner wheels using camber and alignment adjustments. The use of a coilover supension works that much better when nearly equal weights are achieved at each corner.

Someone sorrect me if I am wrong.
