Default Any good Alignment places in So Cal?

Hi guys I just wanted to start off by saying Hi! This is my first post and new to the forum. I been browsing and looking at all these beautiful cars!

I just installed RSR Downs and 20" rims. 20x8.5 +35 in the fronts and 20x10 +45 in the rears on Nitto G2 tires. 245/35/20 and 265/35/20

I need an alignment. Do you guys recommend anyone that knows what they are doing here in the Los Angeles Area? This will help greatly!

Here are some pics of how she looks.






Thank you guys so much for your help!

I wanted to go with the conservative route with the sizing of the wheels. I like how they turned out with the stance and all. Need help with alignment places and should I do a camber kit? All the help would be appreciated!!

Are your rear tires tilted in the back? (negative camber)?

I just lowered and installed the rims last week. The guy at the tire shop told me I need to get an alignment. My rear tires does look like the are tilted in the back. I just want to be on the safe side and get an alignment. And worse case get a camber kit. I got RSR downs so the drop is not aggressive. Trying to get it back to stock specs for tire wear.

From my research, our cars won't be able to get back to stock specs especially lowered. The camber only allows 3 degrees so not sure it that is enough. What area are you from?

west end alignment... probably one of the best guys in SoCal for alignments, if not the best. They do things a little more old school. Alignments are nothing like the dealer, firestone, good year, etc. Expect to be there a while and they are usually booked pretty solid. I wouldn't walk-in and expect an alignment. Call first and see when he has time,

whoops: just realized this is a semi old thread. Oh well, just leave it as info for future hunters.
