Wheel Alignment

[rayj]

Hey

Any suggestions?

I used to get all my alignments done at Adelaide Radial Tyre in Holden Hill. Tried calling today, lines dead, drove down and realised it's shut down...

Where are some tried and trusted wheel alignment joints?

I've got the standard setup, coilovers all round, camber tops front, camber and toe arms rear.

Did a few searches on here, found a topic from 2013 mentioning SA Motorsport Tyres and Kevin Kenny Tyres amongst others. Are these guys still worth visiting, or are there others worth taking a look at?

Also, roughly, what sort of prices would I be looking at from places like SA Motorsport Tyres and Kevin Kenny Tyres for example?

Thanks heaps for any help

I had one done last week on a G6E Turbo by Tyrepower at Holden Hill - just a few doors down. They have good equipment, the guy knew his stuff, and he was very thorough - an "old school" tech. A wheel alignment (including a thorough bush/suspension inspection) was $65, plus $5 for some shims. I was very impressed with the service & happy with the price, so will use them again & happily recommend them. YMMV

I have always used Bob Jane's at Prospect, on Main North Road. Clint, the guy who does the alignment has been there for a long time and certainly knows his stuff. Always have been happy with their service and price.

Clint has moved into the city branch, but yeah, top guy. Ray the owner of prspect is also a champ.
interestingly CLint dosnt rate the city branches methods.

Adelaide Radial Ridgehaven is in the same building under a new name, few of the guys are still there.
