I just got my alignment done today. I have the lifetime alignment with Firestone, I had to go to 3 different shops to fine one with the lift in the floor so they could get mine on the rack. I don't have any body kit on mine. I lowerd it almost 2 inches. They got mine back in spec it just took them about 2 1/2 hours to do it.

I've always had it done by a shop that has an alignment machine.
I had my Z aligned last week by a guy that does race setups using the string method. By far the best alignment I've ever had plus, he did a corner balance since I was tracking the car.

sup, fellas. sorry if this was asked before...curious to know, how well does the alignment work without having a camber kit? do your tires still show up negative or little the least. im lowered on gf210 an im not sure if an alignment is my answer or a camber kit. im sitting on 19s with meister s1's and i love the aggressive look, but i just want my tires sitting straight up on the whole set evenly, so they can last longer. especially now that i have new tires. last set i had, had really bad wear on the rears. tires were general exclaim uhp, that lasted about 21k. help is greatly appreciated.

if you have NTB in your area, call and find out which ones are the newest locations.........the newest locations have in-ground alignment racks....
they also know which shops do and don't have in-ground alignment racks if you call.

Went to NTB today. 53min later car is aligned better than it was.(steering wheel still sits slightly crooked)
Going back before my 6month/60kmi plan is up for a realignment after the springs settle in.

go to a Socal Regional Forum and lookfor the Alignment Shop.
Personally go to the Wheel House at 8630 E. Garvey Ave. Rosemead, CA 91770
I drive about 30min to get there but my second choice is like 45mins away from my house which is in Northridge called pricision Z.
I know your pain cause I'm lowered with Stance Coils...
