How to get an alignment on a lowered s13

[jjf123]

Hi we'll my s13 needs a. Alignment. My car is not slammed but still lower than stock. It's not low compared to other 240 owners. It's on tein adjustable coilovers. Anyways a lot or shops try to over charge me because it's lowered. Some won't even look at t because you have to run over 2x4s to get it in the ramp. So any specific place I can go to and get a reasonable price. And no bs.

Id find a shop that will agree to give you a print out. If you tell them what Settings you want your car at and make it clear you want a print out, they will know not to pay Around and "set the toe and let it go". Just by talking to the alignment guy or sales guy, you should be able to tell what kind of work they will do. By them saying they don't do lowered cars, or charge extra, is a pretty good inductor that the just going to "put it in the green"

What are some good specs to have the wheels at. The rear wheels have some sligt negative camber going on you can tell it rubs the fender but only on rocky roads. And the car leans to the left so I know I need an alignment. My tires balanced too but balancing and an alignment added is expensive I'm shopping around for the cheapest wheel balancing j can find

A good shop that dos performance vehicles can help. I am fortunate I have two places to go from my old hometown in Nor-Cal including my brothers shop at Mercedes. Alignments are everything to do witb performance so get a great one and remember don't go too nuts on camber..anything over 2-1/2 deg negative will chew on tires pretty quick.

I run 0 in the back and -2 up front. Toe I have 0 in the back and- .5 in the front to help hug the road just a tad. I don't have anything to adjust caster yet but I really like how my car handles now so probly won't mess with it.
