Just a shout out for "artistic tint and detail" on hwy-120 in marietta.
Small one man shop but he did a great job so far on my tint. Had it on for only a few days and it still needs to cure but so far it looks fantastic. Spencer is very thorough, took about 2 hours to put it on and did 3 checks before I left for any imperfections.
Charged a reasonable amount I guess for the tint, $180. Got a %50 tint but he also had 32%, georgia legal limit.

I'm not associated with Spencer or anything, just wanted to let people know about a tint shop that does a good job.

Any suggestions on where to go to get my new wheels/tires put on and get an alignment where they'll adjust my camber to what I want??

For one time alignments (not including tax)
$90 at NTB
$80 at Firestone
I don't think they would really charge anything to install the bolts, since all it is is old out new in. Ask about it when the stock wheels come off. It takes a 19mm wrench on both sides.

I'm not sure about mounting and balancing.

I've had good luck at Butler Tire if you want them to align it to your exact specs.

Almost 99% sure i've seen your car at GSU as well.
I can't wait to get my Toms tail lights!
That would be me, everyone at school keeps asking me if I know you.

If you want professional input from people that not only know what they're doing but also talking about? Gran Turismo East is your place then. Don't waste your time by going to Kauffman Tire, NTB or Firestone or any other tire shop. Those idiots can barely align a properly properly nor do they know a damn thing how camber, toe and caster effects the handling of a car

100% this. They sometimes will even allow you to sit in the car on the rack as they adjust the alignment around you. Go nowhere else. It's definitely a haul from woodstock, but it's without a doubt, worth the drive. Professional race teams take their cars to GTE before they head up to Road Atlanta for their race weekends.

Spencer is a friend of mine i met a few years ago when i had my WRX.
He does an AMAZING job at a very competitive price. I have not taken any of my cars anywhere else since
