Default Corner Balance Results

I went to West End Alignment in Gardena and had Daryn and Chris balance and align my vehicle.
Here are the results with me sitting in the driver seat, full tank of gas, spare tire, and jack in the car.

Total weight: 3630 lbs

Weight per tire (lb):

957 903

912 858

Cross balance: 1815/1815

Front to rear distribution: 51.2% / 48.8%
Left to right distribution: 51.5% / 48.5%

Definitely helped to improve the feel from initial impressions.

I don't have my numbers immediately available but when I had mine done I noticed a huge difference as well.

I hear that not Only an Alignment is due when a new suspension is installed (coils)
corner balancing is as well.. problem is most Alignment shops I called either don't do it or say it's a pain.

you typically have to call a shop that specializes in setting up race cars or other type of performance setups.
