I got the lifetime alignment from firestone, I believe it was $120 or very close to it.

skip sears, go to the dealer or a local tire shop. If you dont have a local guy go to a big name goodyear being first choice of the big name guys. Arent alignments free at the dealer for a certain mileage though?? I know a lot of teh silverado guys did that after lift kits and it was free for them *shrug* not sure what nissan covers though

I just went to Nissan and had to pay because the other big name shops at the time didn't have the alignment's for 08 cars. It's been a few months now so I'm not positive but I think it was about $120ish as well. The had a heck of a time getting it up on the lift with it lowered and the stillen facia.

Most places wouldn't do the alignment on my car. I took my car to a local shop, they did a great job. Car drives like a dream.

keeps your tires from premature wearing out, keeps the treads even...to put it in layman terms.

You should get your tires rotated at every oil change, or 4000 miles...

unless you have the cash to buy new treads before normal wear and tear on the tire happens.

Tward the dealership? lets not act foolish now.

The alignment is covered under warranty, i dont see how we are "hustling" them, but if there was a way to hustle the dealer, id be doing it daily!

so the alignment is covered under the warranty? i went to the dealership a couple of months back for an oil change and complained about how my wheel leans to the right and the mechanic who filled out my work form said i need to pay for my alignment... or does the guy not know what he was talking about?

I'm getting my post-eibach alignment this week and was wondering if it is worth taking it to the dealership and trying to negotiate a free alignment? My A/C has about 5k miles on it. Did anyone have any success with the LBC " free alignment from the dealership " hiest?
