$65 for full 4 wheel alignment with the computer printout. local tire shop.

that was stock suspension arms, though.

tire wear isn't the only variable with needing an alignment. suspension work can throw off toe, camber, and caster. toe being off can affect steering centering, how straight you go when you apply the brakes, how easily you can corner quickly, how much the car pulls to one side, how the car follows any groove in the road, etc. there's a lot more going on with handling than there is concern for tire wear, in most normal cases. extreme cases tire wear will eat your wallet alive long before alignment specs will lead to a car mishap or another sort.

I take to much advantage on that one. I got that because little do I know my spring were sagging and causing my tires to be eaten. I thought my alignment was always off.

Since I got that I think the workers are pissed since I bring it every 6K miles lol.

they shouldnt charge you based on what all the have to correct. that's lame if they did that.

if you're just informing us, then nvm. haha.

my friend went with firestone which offer lifetime and they did such a shitty job on the toe. it ate his tire up and left him stranded with a flat tire showing cords.

he then payed the dealer 1200 dollars to put it all back to stock
