Default Any1 know a shop thats good with alignment,correcting toe, etc on lowered cars?

...im trying to find a good spot where i can get my alignment,toe,camber etc. corrected in the chicagoland and surrounding areas....ive already tried pepboys,ntb,carx, and other local shops, but they dont want to touch my car becasue it has a modified suspension. HELP! willing to drive as long as they can fix my problems.

TougeFactory did my alignment.
I went with them since most places won't touch your car once you start running aftermarket arms and traction bars.
They have a lot of experience with that stuff, and they had no problems working with my car.
Fully aligned to my custom specs.
Pretty much everyone I know uses them.

So, I see several options listed here. I have one more for you to consider. I have a friend who set's race cars up for a living (Porsche). His company is called G Designs. He does corner balance and alignment using scales.. Each car is different, he uses scales to weigh each corner of the car, adding weight to the driver seat (same as owner of the car) to get the most accurate alignment. I believe he charges $350, but don't quote me on it... Once he's done, your car will have the best alignment, tailored to the driver of the car. His info is below:
