I'm going to try Dynamic Auto - I have a bunch of questions about my car that I hope they would be willing to answer for me. I don't think I need serious wheel alignment, either, as GSteg said, the tires might be worn enough that an alignment helps, but the problem might still exist.

yeah Henry, he quoted me between $90-100.

i just think 'f-it, get it done right first place'. there is a wheel alignment couple doors away from my work, he quoted me $96 (same price w/ WestEnd) AND i haven't find any online review about their works, so....just to be safe, i'll take WestEnd

Wanna ride with me, Henry ? lol....I'll drop you off at your Gf place in LA

price for west end goes up a lot if you're running coilovers as darren will only cornerbalance your car, nothing less.

(at least that's what he told me over the phone.)
