I can try and check around for next time, but I have always done my oil change and other basic work at the dealer since they are cheaper than the mom & pop shops around that I would attempt to trust. I am not one to try a generic Jiffy Lube type place, I consider them more for a generic Accord or Fusion. Plus I happened to stumble into a coupon so I got the 4 wheel alignment for $65. I really don't know any independent shops that do alignments, but I do know of one decent independent mechanic that I guess could recommend me someone that is hopefully reputable for alignments. This mechanic did my wheel bearing replacements 2 years ago.

I can post a pic of the results later so someone with more knowledge can let me know if the specs are close enough or actually a problem with wear. I know my last set wore evenly, just wore out soon is all. Also, while I assume the heat and WD40 would help a great deal, I'd hate for them to push it further and actually break something that ends up costing me a chunk of money I wasn't anticipating.

Thanks guys!

 

Ask your local auto parts store if there's a "Brake/Alignment shop" they'd recommend in your neighborhood. This isn't a Mom & Pop operation, if they didn't do quality work they wouldn't be in business!
