Talking Car alignment around OC, Laguna Hills

Can anyone please recommend a trusted Alignment shop around the OC: Laguna Hills, CA 93653 area (30 miles radius)?

No finger gap, minor tire tuckage & planning to run these specs:
-2 to -2.75 fronts
-2.5 to -3 rears


I appreciate the help!

Never been there, but always hear good things about Westend Alignment. Get it corner balanced while your at it.

Prices?


What is the major advantage of getting your car corner balanced?
My car is a DD and I have not tracked it...Yet.


Thanks!

you can only corner balance if you have coilovers. its to set equal weight upon all 4 corners of the car.

COrner balance is only for car with coilovers. Reason you need it is because when they install your coilovers, weight distribution was not considered. Weight distribution has alot to do with handling. YOu can call West End Align. to get more detail.

If you only have springs all you need is alignment.

I had it done 2 weeks ago at West End and loving it!

I read a lot of great reviews with West End Alignment *Darrin is the man from what I read*! Thanks for the recommendation.


I do have full coil overs and will be proceeding with the corner balancing. Procrastinating on rolling my fenders to accommodate my Work Meisters S1s which will be arriving this month (f**cking stoked!)

I will also be rolling with my Mark IV Supra buddy with a possible photo shoot
