To be honest, WCN is claiming to do a 4 wheel alignment, but on my sheet the techs wrote, "front wheels done". The fronts look really good, but the rear alignment is wack. Its the exact same as when I brought it in. But whatever, Its not worth going on about it.

It's probably best for me to watch the tech up-close and make sure they do 4-wheel. Thanks for the heads-up.

This is one of the features i love about Westco is that you are allowed in the service bay. Whenever i get work done there im always in the service bay watching the tech do the work. I just always try to keep in mind to maintain some good distance to not get in the way and irritate the tech.

I just got back from WCN for the 4-Wheel Alignment. I waited for about 1.5 hrs. including a Car Wash.

Aside from seeing a couple of ugly bling-bling Zs, the Overall experience was good. The service manager, Ruben, always kept me up-to-date.

Also make sure to tell your service advisor to be "extra" careful on your aftermarket wheels when doing the alignment. They manage to put a very small nick on my LE Nismo GT Wheels but nothing like a touch-up paint can't fix.

For an alignment, do you guys choose the specs at all, more camber and whatnot, or just have it set to factory settings?

I went to WCN yesterday for an oil change, Ruben got me in and out of there in no time, and I got to take an 08 roadster out for a little spin to kill some time! Thanks WCN for the awesome service!
