    Where you getting the alignment done? I just had the H&R springs put in a few weeks ago and need an alignment too. If could provide name/address of shop and approximate cost, it would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Sure. No problem. It's Revolution Tires & Wheels.. Address: 5034 Lincoln Ave. Cypress.. 714-995-8473.. In the corner of Lincoln and Moody.. I paid exactly $80 exactly for the 4 wheel alignment because it's a lowered car.. Usually costs $69.99..

    I was planning to do just a 2 wheel front alignment but it's a good thing I did the rear also.. It's a little negative cambered off... Very nice people.. I got there in and out within an hour... Miriam is wife on the front desk. And David is the technician working on the cars.. My car now runs as smooth as butter..

    I forgot one thing.. Go call and make an appointment first since they are always busy..

    Did the alignment shop provide you with a print of the before and after alignment measurements? I'm curious to see how the numbers looked before and after. Thanks.

    Thanks. I'm curious what was done with the rear wheel alignment. As far as I know, I don't think the rear wheels have any adjustment for alignment. The only option is to put shims in.

    They didn't do as much. Just made it more straight. It was cambered inward a bit before.
