I have had one of my Supras and my IS-F aligned and corner balanced (Supra) at Evasive with excellent results. My second Supra is going there as well for the same treatment as soon as can find the time. It will cost more than $90, take more than 40-minutes and will be a lot more than a tech telling you your alignment is in the green zone. Did the guy even take tire pressure readings during the 40-minutes he had your car for an alignment?

+ 1 on that Ken. All alignments aren't created equally. If you're only concerned with a basic alignment just about any place can do that. If you want an alignment to optimize handling and you're willing to sacrifice some tire wear you take your car to West End or Evasive.

It's also not all about the equipment, it's the person doing the alignment and their knowledge about setting up the car.

Evasive is legit. They do quality work at good prices.

If you want the best deal, take to Mike. He's the owner.

PM me any questions, Mike is a friend of mine.
