Default Where To Go: Alignment & Balance For Dropped Car!

Just purchased a set of new wheels that came with new tires too. I want to balance all my wheels and also want to get an alignment done! My car is dropped and last time that I took it to Sears, I had 7 heart attacks. Where can I go? I'm in Nova!

D&V Autobody has an in ground alignment lift perfect for slammed cars and track cars and their prices are VERY reasonable.

Please dont use Sears unless you know the Tech, you make us cry in the MidA.

Go to a reputable performance or autobody shop.

There are several in NoVA, but unfortunately I am from MD so i'll let the other NoVA people chime in.

D&V and PTuning -- you'll have excellent results with either.

I'll vouch for IAG as well. They just got a new inground laser alignment set-up and they can corner balance your car. They do alot of race car set-ups.

Radial Tire in Silver Spring:
- SCCA sponsor
- area race teams take their vehicles there
- 4-corner balancing available
- VERY knowledgable staff
- staff are all enthusiasts
- they'll do it your whatever specs you like (given you have the appropriate parts)
