The car wasn't feeling good lol) after 3 months of doing it.
I rather just pay $50 with their respect every time i go.
it depends on the shop. I had the lifetime alignment for my toyota. I hit a curb hard and needed alignment every few months, or else I wear out a set of tires in a year. The discount tire in City of Industry got lazy, they started doing half *** job, later on, they didn't do anything really. my tires wore out instantly.. I switched to another one in West Covina, that manager was very nice and told me to go align every 2000 miles. no problem ever since.

These lifetime alignment deals are scams. They will tell you your car is too low after a few adjustments. Also they told my friend after 6 months the owner changed even though it was still FIRESTONE and he was out of luck. WTF?

so i just got back from firestone today in montclaire and they once again did not disappoint me, they did great on my car. They are lower car friendly. Talked to hugo and he said there were a couple customers from my350 who went there. If youre reading this and youre one of the customers, it would be nice to give a brief review for other forum members who are hesitant on going there. thanks

i bought lifetime alignment for $139 just act like you are on the fence about it and they will begin to lower the price $10 at a time. i lowered my car got it aligned, then put a rear camber kit on and got it aligned within 1 month. every thing went well and i am very satisfied. i will need to go back in for a third alignment soon, so we will see how they act

too bad you have to drive up a lift at most firestones and most of the guys at the Firestone locations don't know how to align outside of factory specs or want to deal with modified cars for that matter.

my friend did the lifetime deal and those idiots jacked his car up

Came here a couple weeks ago (in Montclair) since I work down the street and live in Upland. They are not lowered car friendly. They said with my bumper and my current ride hieght (im not slammed just moderately lowered) they didn't want to risk taking off my bumper going on and off the lift. They were courteous enough to be up front with me about it though.

I went to Firestone to get this done because my buddy is able to get his camber adjusted just before the track and after but when I went in they wouldn't do it. They said once I set it to a specific amount they will only readjust to that spec in the future.
