Speed Element for Alignment?
Has anyone gotten an alignment at Speed Element before? I've seen some reviews from members on here that were really positive but they're all from 2013 and 2014. Nothing after that.
I will admit I got my car tinted at Canlas next door to them last year and even though I wasn't a customer one of the shop guys was really cool when he saw me poking around. He talked shop with me for a few minutes. Seemed like a solid dude. Anyone have any more recent experiences? I would love to give these guys my business since they're closer and seem like cool guys. |

While I haven't gotten an alignment from them myself (since I don't actually live in the bay area) I can vouch for them being good guys. They usually book out pretty far in advance since they are one of the few slammed car friendly alignment places.

Used to work with one of the guys there, they're legit and know what they're doing.

I've been to Speed Element recently for alignment and fender roll. I wouldn't recommend the fender roll, but they nailed the alignment - right to what I asked for. Steering wheel is dead nuts straight, first time any shop has managed to make it perfect.

I just got my alignment there today, after installing new wheels and lowering springs. I think I can definitely recommend them.
