need some quick alignment help
Posted: November 25th, 2003, 12:59 pm
Hey all,
I took my R and new tires over to Direct Tire and Auto this morning to get a mount/balance and alignment. They quoted me like 105 + mount over the phone, after I told them it was slightly lowered. When I got to the shop they were like.
shop "Uhhhhh, yeahhhh...its going to be like 105++ because the car is slightly lowered."
me "what do you mean ++ ???"
shop "Uhhhh...means it may be more........." (crickets)
me "why would it be more...the car is .50 inches lower than stock?"
shop "Uhhhh...hmmmm we need to adjust your camber"
me "You cant adjust camber all I want is mount/ balance and align....align by adjusting the toe.
shop "hold on, let me talk to the tech..........."
Anyway, you get the picture. I have HR springs, so there is no dramatic drop. They should be able to align the wheel with no problem right???
Am I missing something here...all they should be able to adjust is the toe...right??
Please...need some quick help before Biff calls me back and tells me I need 20 inch rims too
