Tire mounting, balancing and wheel alignment

I live in Levittown (Nassau) and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendation where I can go to get my tires mounted on my new rims, have them balance and mounted on the car, and then have wheel alignment done. I live close to a Good Year and Firestone. Is it a good idea to just take it there? I installed a set of TEIN Flex Z coilovers myself and I would also like the ride height adjusted for the new wheels as well as the camber taken out from all four corners. And from experience, how much does this usually cost?

I believe those shops you mentioned will only align it to factory specs, and not as precisely as you would like it.


I would take a look at Prime or AZP

I would recommend Intrack Tires in Ozone Park, Queens. They did my wheel alignment.

Find a shop with a Hunter Road Force balancing machine, you'll appreciate having made that effort.
