Thumbs up Westend alignment ftmfw!!!

my car recently was aligned at autobacs in west covina. when i left the place the car ended up wobbling and would be very dangerous to drive.. seemed like toe angle was WAY off.. took it to them 3 times and problem was never fixed. i was getting fed up and decided to go to someone that knows their stuff.

finally took it to Darrin at Westend.. Darrin is one of the most knowledgeable guys i've met for alignments. Darrin doesn't use any computers to do his alignments. he's the old school alignment style with chalk and balancing machines. it took him around 1 hour for my car. he had to remove my rear tie bar because it's now too long but when i drove it onto the street after he was done with it....... MAN my car felt awesome.. so much grip and felt so grounded like how a sports coupe should feel. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND going to him for alignments although pricey but definatly well worth it.

spend the money once and get it done right!

-Alex

well he says 4 wheel alignment is $120, but depends on what's wrong with your car the price might differ.. mine was $200 because he had to uninstall my toe bolts and camber arms because whoever installed them put them in the wrong spot

yeah my car was fairly quick.. i was kinda shocked.. but i found out that my front tires inner tread was already gone so have to get that replaced but the car now drives like it's on rails
