same here, same location.

Also, can I get some advice, (dont mean to thread jack) Im in need of an alignment but I am going to get 20s soon (i currently have 18s). Will putting on the new wheels change anything, in other words would it make a difference if I get it now or later? I wont be dropping anytime soon, so Im not too worried about that, Ill do another alignment when I get the drop.
Thanks

Just drive your car into the curb a few times.. that'll align it just as well as some $40 alignment shop will.

You drive an Infiniti, pay big bucks for the car? Pay big bucks for alignment.

...but you're in luck, check out Temple city auto repair. Alignment for 55 bucks last time one of the members went there. Don't quote me on this it might be more expensive now.

Good and cheap don't come together.

You get what you pay for.

Want an "in spec" alignment? go to a cheap place.

Want a "spot on" alignment? you gotta pay for it.
