Default cheap place to get alignment and balancing in tucson!

does anyone know a place to tucson to get a cheap alignment and balancing done? i got the new wheels on, but on the way home i was getting a lot of vibrations and it was pulling to the right some. i usually got to brake max because i know the owner of that particular location, and trust their work, but i wanted to see if anyone knew a cheaper but just as reliable place?

btw, here is a pic of the new wheels on the car. i'll try to get better ones when i get a chance.

All depends on what you feel is cheap. I have an lifetime alignment plan with bridgestone off near the tucson mall. It was like $150 but they will align the car as many times as I want for as long as I own it. Pretty much pays for itself after the second alignment.

i know, thats why i said cheap but just as reliable. i will probably go with jdls suggestion with the lifetime plan. that will work out great once i start doing suspension mods so i can just go back and get it done again for no charge.

That was my thought too. Once it's paid for that is one maintenance expense that I no longer have to worry about.

Granted they can really only adjust our front but on the tucson roads a year of normal driving knocks it out of alignment,

Ever drive golf links between swan and alvernon, either way? I swear, I catch some hangtime driving that road! Art! Good recommendation Justin, I didn't know they offered that. Might have to get one myself.

Yep it's for the life that you own the car and it's nationwide too so even if you move or out of town they will honor it at any bridgestone / firestone shop
