Default Need help to find an alignment shop

Hi guy, I need help to find the shop for my alignment. Right now, I am running TE37 17x9 +45 on SO4 225/45 F and 255/40 R.
What is the possible right spec, if I wanted to lower the car to close the fender cap.
I am located in Lowell, MA. I was thinking to go townfair tire but I don't think they will do customize spec. I wonder if someone here live in the same
local know what shop could do my alignment.

Thanks in advance

Do you have rolled/pulled fenders? You are probably going to end up in the -2 Front -3 in the rear. That would be my guess, should be very doable as long as the fenders are atleast rolled.

Try Flatout motorsports in Mendon. That where i will be heading as soon as my wheels show up. Litte bit of a drive for you.

Message me, my friend does alignments in his shop. His lift is low friendly and he's helped people get those sizes on plenty of times. You will need an alignment and fender rolling, and he does it all. Chandler Auto Body, in Worcester MA.

Stock is -.5 front and -~1.0 in the rear, you should be fine with -~2.0 in front and -2.5 in the rear, I had +35 all around before on my 8.5 front and 9.5 rear with fenders rolled not pulled, and slight bumper cut. Your offset isn't as aggressive as my previous setup so you shouldn't have any worries

Thanks guys for all the suggestion, I couldn't wait so I went to townfair tires. I ended up with -1.5 front and -4.2 rear.
I dont know happened to my car before I am a second owner, even though I had my rear with -4.2 camber, my tires wall are still very close to my quarter.
I have another question, will my tires wear very fast?

Try Aston Martin of New England & Lotus Motorsports, Inc (Waltham). They do good work on a lot of cars, and not too expensive. They are also a TireRack reseller, so you if need tires they are quite competitive and do road force balancing, etc...
