Used to go there, but we prefer the staff at Marietta now. Ask for Mason.

Default Nalley is actually cheaper for alignments (with ACNA discount)

I don't know about the TT's suspension, but the Audi 4 link suspension (used in their sedans) is very unique. I went to butler once and they didn't adjust squat. I had to go to the dealer in order to get my camber adjusted properly (the subframe has to be shifted). Oh, and if you do talk to them, ask them what "Raised Toe" is...

Yeah, my subframe needs centering. I'll ask. I met Mason yesterday.

Correct- but we do need to center the sub.

Default Re: Getting some work done today in fact by them.

I picked up my Nitto INVO tires and tried to take em to Nally to get put on and get the alignment, but Becky in service said their air compressor was down for the day. Nally is cheaper to us club guys though. Becky said $20 per wheel for mount and balance plus $3 disposal fee. Then Nally alignment is $100. But I'm over at Butler Tire in Marietta now because of the compressor problem. Their alignment is $140 here at Butler and I'm not sure what the mount & balance is yet, I just told em to do it, because I don't have much of a choice right now. If I get Butler to do a "high-speed balance on the car" it's another $140 so I'm skipping that for now. If it shakes, I'll deal with it later.
