I'm looking for a basic alignment on the '94 camaro, on which I replaced the 16" x 8" wheels with 17" x 8.5". Are one guy's machine better than another's? Is one technician better? What's the lowest price I might find? Thanks.

You don't need to realign just because you changed wheels.

Yes, there are differences in alignment machines, but really... as long as the machine is calibrated and the tech knows what they're doing, the latest greatest equipment isn't required.

The tech makes all the difference in the world.

I don't know of any good alignment shops in the Clearwater area, but expect to pay in the neighborhood of $80 for an alignment.

Before I changed the wheels, the right front spindle got smashed and was replaced, and now the steering wheel is not centered when traveling in a straight line.

you need an alignment . Atleast the toe needs to be adjusted

Loren

Yeah, something is bent. Tie rod, lower control arm, subframe, something. Hopefully, it's not bent so much that it can't be brought back into spec.

I've been procrastinating, and the front tires finally showed too much metal on the inside, and failed. So I bought some poontangs, or nankings, or something like that, and I'm determined not to let them get scraped again. So does anyone have some updated suggestions on alignment shops or technicians or coupons? I'd have to forego about a dozen closer shops to go to All American, but I need some ammo anyway, and there's a gunshop nearby.
