Default Places to get my car aligned..........

I've had numerous problems going through tires on my GSR. I installed a camber kit and it didn't seem to help at the setting I placed it on so i adjusted the kit more and hopefully its at a good setting. But i need an alignment like crazy. Does anyone know of any places in the Orlando or Tampa area where I can get a good alignment and camber kit correction done? Anyone had any experience with places like kaufman or Tire kingdom? any advice would be greatly appreciated

with the camber kit, many places are going to charge more than your standard alignment, but they can get it right.

I always recommend Cars and Concepts in Tampa, they do excellent work.

If you do a search in the autox forum you will find their number, and several peoples comments about their work.

is that why your car sits in the 3rd parking space for like weeks at a time? j/k

i have no clue on places here in orlando but im soon to get some lowering and will need an alignment. mcgee goodyear tire stores always are good for me, but i dunno about camber plate issues. ill ask some native locals if there is a place to get more performance oriented alignments done.

Nix-n-Black on O.B.T. will do the alignment, but you have to be ther e at 7am or they won't get you in. I went there at 830 once and they told me they might be able to get me out by noon. There one of the only places in orlando that I've found.

A guy I work with also told me that there's a firestone on 50 towards ocoee that'll do them, but I haven't been able to check it out yet.

That Firestone installed my parents' brakes backwards. So uh, you take the good with the bad I guess.
