West End Alignment is a alinement shop owned and ran by a reputable technician - Darrin (and his son, I think), his shop is located in Gardena, so its somewhat in your area.
He does a lot of performance cars for street and track. He's really busy though, and you have to make an appointment well in advance

Default I found a good alignment shop in 626 area

Sup guys,

A lot of you might know this place already (Elizabeth, etc.).

JC Auto House

9237 Lower Azusa Rd, Unit O
Temple City 91780

(626) 287-7781

My bro took me there today to do alignment (I installed sways last night and noticed very very uneven tire wear). My bro said alot of the NASIOC guys go there, and last time he took his WRX there he couldn't be happier.

So I went. Waited about 30 min for this stock Matrix to get lost (lol), then it was finally my turn. I just did 4 wheels alignment and dismount/re-mount/swap the front tires due to uneven wear. The guy CYRUS was very cool. He knows what he's doing, and would ask you if you want to have it set to factory settings to conserve tire or if you want it more track-oriented.

The whole job took about 30 min. Cyrus was very tedious with the work, and made sure that everything was nice and balanced. While my car was being worked on, a S2000 and 240SX turbo pulled up, waiting to be aligned.

I paid 70 for alignment and 40 for front tire swap. I hope the prices will go down once I know him better. Very nice attitude.

A lot of people also recommend West End in Gardena, but there's a 2 week wait. This is definitely a nice alternative.

I don't know if you really need an appointment, because I didn't make one, and only had to wait for 1 car in front of me. But you can try calling ahead to see if appointments are possible.
