Where can I get the toe-in set on my car downtown? E30's don't need a full alignment so I want to go to a knowledgable shop.

I may also need my RS's balanced so a shop that won't butcher those too would be great.

Thanks
Ron

Try the ok tire on 3rd, just across the granville st bridge from downtown
Vancouver, 1516 West 3rd Avenue

My bet would be The BMW Store, on Burrard. They've likely got the latest greatest Hunter equipment, including a Road Force balancer. Wont be the cheapest, but it'll be right.

I tried Westcoast Alignment and Frame and they were very fast and friendly.

If I didn't go there I take my car to Glen @ Midway Excel Tire in Aldergrove. He's a perfectionist.

Thanks Al:

After they raped me to put in a new TPS, screwing up my battery and cruise control in the process, and leaving me with a slow drain of power, I use them only as a last resort.

Ohhh, come on now, Ron! The dealer can do NO WRONG!

Westcoast Frame and alignment on Powell, they specialize in Vipers and have A LOT of hi-po cars go through their shop. They always have some unique machine on the hoist or in the parking lot. On top of that they have an awesome rep!
