I've gone to Firestone for the lifetime alignment, but I have to watch them like a hawk everytime.

A lot of folks to go Dallas Frame and Alignment if you are lowered.

In that case, I would go to Firestone. Try to find one with a Hunter DSP600 alignment machine. The alignment sensors should clamp onto the outer edge of the lip. So tell the tech to be careful not to scratch the lips. I think it's ~$130 for lifetime alignment.

go to fireston for the lifetime alignment but make sure they are using the hunter dsp machine and not the older style machine. the dsp uses 4 reflective mirrors to sync up with the machine...
