Default Exceptional Alignment Shop in N. AL?

I'm looking for a local alignment shop that you guys have had experience with. I live in the Athens area.

I've been noticing my S2000 seems "unstable" when I really push it through corners. I also get the same "feeling" when I change lanes. After looking underneath and finding everything tight, I noticed the inside of my front driver's side tire is showing a good amount of wear. Alignment?

Thank you,
-Jason

Jason,

There is a great alignment guy that lives in your area. His name is Ron Coleman and he works out of his home using his own Hunter machine, so he can work evenings or weekends:

FYI, one other easy thing to check would be your tire pressures. You can run different pressures front and rear, but you'll readily notice if your pressures aren't matched up between left and right sides, especially in the rear. Did I mention especially in the rear? Lol. But seriously, apart from the handling penalty, differing rear tire pressures could even damage your Torsen diff.

Tires need to match too. Steven found two tires on his S were marked the same, but when measured were different.
