This was my '80 Celica @ Wheel Works in Campbell (caster problem and alignment corrected by Custom Alignment in MV with a list of what WW did wrong), my '97 Pathfinder LE 4x4 @ Wheel Works in Santa Clara (only to rotate tires, fix RH pull and center steering wheel - brought it back to them 3x and they finally got it right on the 3rd), and my '93 Maxima SE @ Wheel Works in Los Gatos (brought in for RH pull - again problem was fixed by Custom Alignment - don't remember tho). These are my experiences with them, I have heard other stories from friends as well.

they did well on my alignment. But AI is right around the corner from my house and I have to get to work after I drop it off. On top of that I have camber bolts and newly installed suspension..not going to be an easy alignment.

$125 it better be right so AI is the place.
