Alignment

My car is shaking at a certain speed (70-80mph). I think it's the alignment or could be the tires need balancing.

So my question is, where in the bay area do a good job for AWD alignment and at what price?

Custom Alignment - Mt. View

Sounds like a wheel out of balance (you may have lost a wheel weight) or bent rim.
