@jghall- It will be a 4 wheel alignment but once they put it on the machine it will read what needs to be adjusted. If you just did struts and are soon to do tires I will safely say you will need 4 wheel alignment. Price should vary by wheel diameter size (ie: a 20" wheel will cost more than a 17" wheel). The KYB's for some reason did seem better than the ride in the new car lol. Im glad that you expect to take care of your car.

@bufferdan- you said "I mean ultimately how many more miles are you going to see out of your vehicle???" I ask you how many miles do you not expect to get outta your vehicle? If you take care of it you will get a long run. Im coming up on 200k soon and I have taken real good care of my RX. Its a very low maintenance car and if you pamper it, it will be rolling many miles later.

 

4 wheel alignment on all independent suspension cars anymore.

 

Thanks...That is what I thought. I assume it would it be best to get the new tires first and then get the alignment done right away rather than doing the alignment before getting new tires??

 

+1 KYB struts definitely made the ride better than new. I remember wanting to upgrade to a new RX and my 99 still had a better ride....even the salesman was surprised on how nice it drove!
