Default Need an alignment shop.

Ok so I will be ordering new tires in the next few weeks. I'd like to find a place that is experienced with aligning "specialty" cars like sports cars, and would be even better if they have experience with aligning S2000s.

I live in McLean, but am willing to go in probably about a 20-30 mile radius...meaning Northern VA and southern Maryland.

Also, any idea on how much I should look to pay for this alignment?

Thanks in advance for any assistance

try ultimate performance (www.ultimatedc.com) over in sterling. they deal with just about any car. they are kind of pricey, but they're the only shop i trust with my money. i'm not too sure about the price(usually about $60) but if you're after a custom alignment, it's probably going to be a bit more. you can reach them @ (703) 435-5000 and ask for brian. good luck.

i know custom car care here in newport news is too far, but as a price reference they charge about 75 for a four wheel alignment and do a really good job. they even do a nifty print out of all the settings before and after. good luck.

Ya know, it really aint fancy, but I had Merchants at Rolling and Old Keene mill do mine, and I think they did a really good job. I walked in and handed them the specs that I wanted and I think it was $89, but I can go back and have it checked and re-aligned for a year. I talked with a guy named Scott, young guy, talks really fast.

^^ i had that merchants put my winter tires on a couple years ago and they scraped the hell out of my stock rims. afterwards, they proceeded to scrape up my front lip on the curb pulling the car around to park it. maybe things have changed recently but i cannot recommend that shop
