Default Alignment with Body Kit

Guys,

For those of you that are lowered, with a kit and bigger wheels - how do you get wheel alignments done? My sideskirts are too low to go on the lift.

Thx,
Jonny

You can try to take wood with you to the shop. My car is to low but I found an old school place that does alignments the old way where they have a inground bay and you drive up on a scale and they do it manually..

I took mine to Sears and they had to put them on a couple of different lifts and then they lifted it on one of the lifts. It wouldn't fit on one, but the other it was fine. Same for firestone when I had them install my wheels.
