Default Need to get alignment done ASAP.

I just noticed this morning that the inner part of my front tires are worn completely bald, down to the metal. I plan on replacing the tires ASAP with Michelin PS2s, but I also need a place that can correct the alignment on my front wheels since there is obviously too much negative camber.

Anyone have any recommendations for me? I was going to try Plano Discount Brake & Alignment, unless someone has a better suggestion?

EDIT: Actually, I forgot NTB does alignments, too, I think. Maybe I'll just take it there.

I believe NTB has a lifetime alignment you can buy but I bought one from Firestone for 149.99 for lifetime alignment. Make sure its a Hunter alignment machine.

Thanks for the help. Ended up going to NTB. Unless I am an idiot and horribly misunderstanding the spec sheet they gave me, they only actually adjusted the camber .1 degrees. Can that tiny of an angle really make that big of a difference in tire wear?
