Default Allignment

I am interested in getting my alignment redone. I bought the car with 9k miles and now have 22k. I assume I have waited way to long. I am putting new pirelli p zero nero m+s fronts on and want to do it at the same time. I called my local dealer and he said it was 229 bucks to get the four wheel alignment. Is this the only way to go or is this a reasonable price to pay?

$65 bucks for four wheel alignment at my local shop in NJ - my man Enzo is race proven and will customize to your needs - OEM or aggressive... let you sit in the car and do anything else you want to customize your settings.

Thats what I said. I found a BF Goodrich by my house that will do it for $69. He said they have all the factory specs. If it is a daily driver that does not go to the track don't you think that is the best way to go?

$229 is highway robbery...

$48-65 seems to be a more 'normal' price to pay for a 4-wheel alignment.

I know a guy that charges $100 for a 4-wheel alignment, but it's a competition race alignment and he has proven specs that he knows work well with S2000's and will align it with you in the car, etc.

I just been throught HELL with this topic personally. Go with Honda, I originally went to Mavis and they did it wrong. Tire wore improperly and I went nuts trying to get them to re-imburse me for the tires. Never again will i stray. Go with Honda...they know that car inside and out.

i suggest driving for a few days on the new wheels, then getting an aggressive alignment (and not from the honda dealer!)
i had a speed shop do mine here in calif and it was only $75
