Default Evasive Motorsports

I'm planning to get an alignment done. Anyone ever heard of Evasive Motorsports in La Puente? They seem to have pretty good reviews at Yelp.com.

Check out their video.

That's a pretty sick video! lol

But an alignment is an alignment, its the same anywhere as long as the shop has the right equipment and knows what they are doing. I get mine done at Firestone through a homie, never had an alignment issue on any of the family cars he's worked on (4 total). He's in Walnut, PM me if you want more info, i can probably get you a sick deal for lifetime alignment too (works at any Firestone)

i've been to them numerous times to buy stuff, even back when they were in a tiny office in walnut off of fairway, but now, they've grown exponentially and their service area is pretty impressive (you can see a bit of it from the waiting area). They get pretty good rep from more track-oriented people and they def have the experience w/ their numerous s2k's and evo's that they regularly time attack. I'd trust them for sure to do something simple like an alignment.

Their alignments are ~$80. They'll do it to your specs of course and regularly ask you to walk to the back with them to see if the camber is enough, etc. Good service and good work! I take my car here quite a bit

Thanks for all the inputs. I called up Evasive and they are booked till Friday, so I just called up JC Autohouse in Temple City and went there. Might have to check out Evasive another time, but Cyrus at JC autohouse took good care of my car. He lets you watch everything he does and explains all the alignment specs to you. He definitely is the go-to guy for alignments.

+1 for JC Autohouse, got my alignment done there also. I believe I paid about $90 for an alignment. If your wondering what alignment system he uses, its the Hunter alignment system.

i've heard of them from a member who bought my exhaust.. but if you're in the area of la puente, why not just go to the firestone in walnut? i saw a thread here on the so cal section for lifetime alignment that is slammed friendly for CL members

He charges 90 bucks for an alignment. If you look at his hunter machine, there's a sticker. I forgot the exact quote, but it's like something about how good work is never cheap, lol. He does a test drive after the alignment and makes sure the car goes straight on it's own. it wasn't busy when i went. I was out in 40 minutes.
