Well AI charges depending on how much mods you have. Stock would be 60, camber bolts with custom alignment with be 100+, I think camber bolts front and rear are 120, which is the price they quoted me recently when I called. Coils and up are about 130+ for sure...........

so 80-90 with coils sounds like a great deal lol. I think I will have to try a new place this time. Because it is getting expensive.

Ive gone to aligntechs and ehhhh theyre not good at all.(one dude jacked up my memory steering). Looking for a place with more better reviews and better service. Any input would be great guys. Thanks.

It's weird seeing bad experiences with AI. I've taken my car to them a lot and it has always been a great experience.

I told them that they were less than a week old Dunlop Star Specs and that they WERE directional tires. The guy I spoke to then said something like "Oh, well there's nothing we can do then. You're car is gonna pull to the left slightly." Wtf? I'll never go back to them again.

This place is awesome though. They did the alignment on my MR2 after I replaced the ball joints and tie rods. Aligntechs - Welcome to ALIGNTECHS!
They were probably telling you the truth, as when u get new tire's it can cause whats called a TIRE PULL.

Custom Alignment in Mountain View has done a few of my cars. Always top notch work. They dial in everything from daily drivers to race cars there.
