People with coilovers, Do you guys do alignments at some specialty shop with Weight scale(corner weight balance) or just whatever Tire shop with those Hunter machines ?

I recently have to re-adjust my 8's height (damn garbage NYC roads), and car is kinda bumpy. so ...

 

if you are tracking it i would worry about corner balancing.. if not i would just find a height that works for you. and a good alignment shop that knows the car!

beers

 

yup, it isn't necessary to corner balance unless you are tracking. I simply got a regular toe, camber, caster alignment done at a performance shop.

 

I'm still changing the settings on my car almost every event. I don't own a set of corner weight scales, so that means I probably have to pay somebody to use theirs. I'm trying to get as much settled as I can before I do that.

As for alignments, I've found a franchise shop that most people would probably stick their noses up. They have very accessible hours, the staff is always really interested in what I'm doing and why I want the changes I want, and they can usually get my car in when I want.

I got tired of the local 'performance shop' that treated me like I was barely worth their time.

 

Sweet.

Regular shop that is.

Im still playing around with the height of the car. stupid *** NYC roads ...

Thx guys

 

Admit it, you're tapping the chick behind the Firestone counter.

 

Im on the same boat. I need a corner balance plus toe camber. I'm trackin in two weeks.
