Ok, that sounds like a plan! Apex is located about SW 122 ave and 128 ST.

The owner is incredibly nice, explains to you every single detail of the alignment and does it depending on your goals and use of the car. Can't say enough good things about him.

I've heard good things about Alignment Factory too, but my personal experience is with Apex.

Ballpark figure they charge?

Interestingly enough, Alignment Factory is right around that same area. lol.

On my previous car though, I just took it in and had them do their thing. This time around I'm looking for specific settings i.e. camber, zero toe, etc. and Apex might be better suited for that. I'll keep that in mind when I decide to do it.

I'm super happy with these coils man. They ride super nice. Stiffer than stock, not bouncy at all.

With camber alignment IIRC its 100-120 (without 80). Even though I already knew what camber, toe and caster meant, Albert took his sweet time explaining me exactly what everything meant and how a negative or positive number would affect the ride. And the guy is a perfectionist. Its not a matter of "well, 1.9 is close enough to 2.0" nope.... He wants that 2.0 and will get to it, zero rush in getting you out. Off the charts personal treatment for real.

I think it would probably be just you and me. 720 to leave at 730 absolutely sharp?

I'll be meeting up at the shop to!

Yeah. No sense in me driving down to 88th just to come back up. I'll be in touch that morning and essentially get on the turnpike as you guys approach the NW 12th street exit on turnpike North and we'll arrive at Kab's shop together.

Cool?

Sounds like a plan!

Did you set the new LCAs to exactly the same length? I can tell you that when I installed my Cusco LCAs my alignment was way off and the car was down right scary to try and drive with how far the toe was off.

As far as I could tell, yes. The car is hardly scary to drive. Aside from the steering wheel not being straight, there are no particularly odd driving characteristics.

Granted, I'm not driving 10/10ths on public roads where I'm sure an exact alignment (or lack thereof) might be more noticeable.

I'll do my best to meet and drive up :-) We should do a group in Waze app to help us join in while on the road like this people:

PS: I might just do universal horror nights since i'll be up there

That's about right. I'll be there at 9.

You can add me to the list. Do we have any e85 stations mapped out?
