Lifetime / Unlimited Alignment Shops

Does anyone know of any shops in the South Bay Area or Monterey Peninsula that offer unlimited or lifetime alignments? I would be getting about 10-20 done a year (autocross car is my DD). Thanks!

I think it depends on the Firestone shop you go to. For the most part, if your car fits on the rack they should be able to do the alignment for you.

From Firestone's website:

STANDARD ALIGNMENT

* inspect steering and suspension system including tire condition and air pressure
* put vehicle on alignment rack, mount and compensate sensors
* print out initial alignment readings
* adjust camber, caster, and toe angles, if adjustable, to manufacturer specifications (additional parts and labor may be necessary on some vehicles - see your customer service advisor for details)
* print out final alignment readings to verify alignment is within specification
* road test vehicle
* 12-month/12,000-mile limited warranty

LIFETIME ALIGNMENT (available on most vehicles)

In addition to our Standard Alignment Service, we:

* provide a Lifetime Limited Warranty* on the alignment, which means we'll set alignment angles on your vehicle every 6,000 miles or whenever needed, free of charge, for as long as you own it

*See your auto advisor for complete terms and conditions of written, limited warranties

That's BS as I have the lifetime alignment for all of my cars and have had them do the alignment on my G several times. You might want to try a different Firestone store.
