Unhappy Help: Search for the right Alignment shop

It's was four in the morning; 5 lugs flew off and my front left VSXX rolled away awhile driving 50mph by the Pearl City Exit - east bound. Lucky no one got hurt. Someone tampered with my lugs in Kunia

I picked up my wheel where it stop rolling at the H2 north exit pass tunel. Walking back with my wheel noticed two patrol officers and towing truck already there due to half my car is on the exit lane and can cause morning traffic.

Today, I mounted my wheel and drove it; notice it can drive strait but steering wheel is turned about 12 degrees to the right.

What is the best alignment shops out there??? Mahalo

Damn that's scary, glad no one got hurt. Almost happened to me once, only 2 out of 5 lugs left on.

thats crazy herb, glad no one got hurt. sucks that idiots screw with peoples cars. When I put on my springs I took my car to A1 Wheel Alignment on Dillingham. He has a service bay with the pit so no need to put the car on a lift, just drive it into the garage. 90 bucks for the alignment, but that was a year ago. The number is 845-6877.

damn herb thats crazy. Glad your ok though. So your car is good? Nothing else broke i.e. brake rotor or anything. Honestly I think you should get your car checked out for any other parts that might have come loose.
