    Default Where do Perth people go to get their wheels aligned/balanced?

    Hi all,

    I'm just wondering where perth hachi owners send their cars into for wheel alignments and balancing?

    As I am installing lowered springs, shocks and an adjustable pan hard rod, I would like some recommendations to good places to go to (i.e. who know what they are doing).

    All recommendations welcome.

    I use beaurepaires in Myaree. They actually listen to what you want ur alignment set as. To many places say yeah ok then set everything so u get better tire wear. See Darren and say Marchi with the Sprinter sent ya.

    for absolute quality you can't go past wa suspensions in osbourne park.

    i have used them quite a few times and have never walked away unhappy.

    i took my mates car to get w/a done at another joint and after 2 trips and 4 hours and a huge swearing fight with the fuckhead doing the wheel alignment, i finally got it done. i shouldve just payed the extra and had a straight forward, well done job at wa suspensions. i won't make that mistake again

    Duncan Nissan do mine... sept when my car isnt high enough off the ground to make it up the hoist... which is all the time
    Apart from that I go to Wheelsworld in Carbon crt, ozzy park cos they have a pit setup for wheel allignments. Plus John there is an ex-racer. I tell him what numbers I want and provided I'm not dreaming he will dial them in.

    Anything other then castor, camber or toe setup I do myself because I have a finely tuned ass which knows when im not getting the most out my suspension.

    anyone at wa suspensions is good. they do alot of track cars and top quality street cars. they can also do cars that are bullshit low too.

    my mate had his 180 done there and that thing scrapes over leaves haha. nah not really but you get the idea.

    at the end of the day any clown with a wheel alignment machine and a clue can do a basic wheel alignment for you. if you want more than that take it to people that won't look at you wierd when you want exact settings done.
