I'm really sick of Les Schwab and Discount Tire alignments, they won't ever set it to the setting I want just get it good enough. Anyone know of some good alignments shops and possibly a shop to do corner balancing around Seattle? I can't find any good small shops, just the big companies that hire idiots.

When we were in Seattle, there was actually a privately owned Meineke owned by this really cool Filipino guy.
8401 AURORA AVENUE NORTH, SEATTLE, WA 98103-4357

He, and his staff would do alignments based on the numbers we gave them. Had no problem doing that for us, and was always affordable.

I got to Seattle often, I may be able to bring up my scales, and corner weight your car. What sorta suspension would I have to work with?

The LS in Fife used to align to my specs but it's been a few years since I've gone to that shop. What Discount Tire has an alignment rack? I haven't seen a Discount Tire in Pierce or King County that has a rack.

Good to know, I will call them up and see if they will still do it to my spec. My car isn't ready yet, I'm going to change out a few suspension parts so I wanna do that first.

I got a lead on a place called TCmotorsports, but it turns out they closed their shop.


I was just using Discount as an example, I heard they do alignments somewhere up in Snohomish county.

But if you don't actually have first hand experience with a shop then making claims that a shop doesn't perform their duties correctly is bad form.

I'm not trying to start an argument but you made a pretty bold statement.

Good point, I don't have first hand experience but I've heard of discount doing alignments. I never said they do a bad job, they just don't do it to customer specs only to the general range of what the book says. Generally they just want to get cars in and out.

Not sure if you found a place, but I'm in the same boat as you. Here's what I've found so far...
