I went to JC autohouse. He's a good alternative to West End since there really isn't any wait. Also if you are just looking for a standard alignment without custom specs, west end really isn't necessary. Only drawback is it's cash only. Oh and my car is ridiculously low and he was able to get it on the rack no problem.

i agree, Cyrus is a Great guy to do your alignment, my only problem with him is that he increases your price depending on what size wheels you have, last i checked it was like $70 for 18s and $90 for 20s

Tommy at the MusicBox recommended me to King's Tires. I don't really remember where it was though, but it was $50 for an alignment, although they didn't do much since I'm on H&R and they maxed out the adjustments and I was still out of spec on camber, everything else was fine.

I went to JC Autohouse, great guy great service but quite pricey. Then I purchased the Firestone Lifetime and I go to the one in Arcadia and always go to Javier for alignment. Pays off after 2 alignments (I got mine for $130).

do they use machines or just the old-school measuring tape method? or both? either way i've heard good things from them as well. they align while you sit in the car!

Default Best alignment shop in San Diego?

Getting ready to install F-Sport shocks, springs, and rear sway on the 350. Recently got new tires and would love to find the best place that can properly adjust the toe to minimize inside tire wear since I really don't want to deal with flipping tires all the time. So, looking for a good alignment shop in San Diego that can deal with lowered cars and the lack of camber adjustment on the IS. Any thoughts???

I also recommend them. I ended up paying 90~ for front and rear camber/toe adjustments. Went from crappy to awesome in less than a hour.
