Best place to get an alignment done around Philly?

Looking for a shop to do my alignment. Looked at PepBoys since that's where I had one done on my old car, and the reviews are horrible, people are saying PepBoys will tell you something on your car is broken and they will have to replace that in order to do the alignment, and that's exactly what they did to me last time . I searched and couldn't find any useful information that's current. My car is lowered but not slammed. Looking for a reputable place to do my alignment.

It is an alignment. Anyone kid with down syndrome can do it with a tape measure. It isn't like your driving a Ferrari or anything.

wtf? thanks for the helpful advice. it's apparently not that simple if Firestone is charging a regular alignment rate plus a camber kit to do it and they won't guarantee the car will pull straight.

No, he gives people way to much dis-respect.... Sure it made him feel good responding like that though ..

nhanxsolo - Check out the Vendor section on this site and look for RT Tuning.. They do a real alignments and not a ghetto down syndrome driveway alignments. They'll also treat your car like a Ferrari and you wont have to sit in 30 degree weather w/ a tape measure for a couple hours.
