Default good alignment shop near hayward?

hey guys, I want to get a custom alignment. i called roger kraus racing and they said it would cost $140 if adjustment is needed at all 4 corners. i am sure they do excellent work, but this sounds quite steep to me (I heard dublin honda does the whole thing for $80 or something like that). I know what specs I want to run, so does anyone know a reputable shop that can do it for a better price? thanks!

if you're willing to cross the bridge, I would definitely recommend talking to Orlando at Auto Innovations in Milpitas I'm sure that many members here would vouch for his work

^^^ thanks for the rec. they quoted $90 for a four wheel alignment, which seems much more reasonable. i hope they do good work!

I've gotten my alignment done there twice. Happy both times. Lowered cars are okay.

No need to cross a bridge from Hayward to Milpitas.

+1 for Auto Innovations!

Turbo Tires in Oakland, try to get a guy named Thomas or Sam to do it. Price is like 80-90 bucks from what I recall, do great work, only guy who got my S to drive straight. Might charge extra for custom settings, who knows.

+1 on Roger Kraus. They aligned and corner balanced my Evo when I had it and they take their stuff seriously

Roger Kraus is good and Brandon knows his stuff but they are on the steep side compared to others around... I might have to check out Motorsport Techniques myself.
