Default Best alignment shop near east bay?

Just discovered that the reason I get bad vibrations at ~80mph is alignment out of whack. My front left wheel camber is way off, now bald on the inside.

Which shop is the best alignment shop near east bay?

This may sound nuts, but Big O tires in Lafayette has always done a good job for me. Lafayette is a very upscale community and I've seen Corvettes, numerous Porsches and even an Aston-Martin in there for tires and alignment.

Well, you will have to cross the Dumbarton bridge but for my money Custom Alignment in Mountain View is one of the best.

I second Custom Alignment in Mountain View. Been taking various cars/trucks of all types there for the past 10 years. More expensive than Wheel Works, Discount Tire, etc., but the tech will know what he is doing.

I think last time I paid $150 for a "sports" alignment at Custom Alignment. Ask for David.
