go to centreline suspension in thomastown. they are expensive but believe me, doing 1:32 on PI with a NA RX7 FC, they do know what they are doing. :) hope this helps

I go to Traction Tyres down at Rowville. They do a good job at a reasonable price ($77 all round according to specs).

Dick is a panel beater.

Dick used to outsource his wheel alignments to the local Bob Jane dealer and I'll bet that he still does.

You'll probably be more accurate in saying that the Ringwood Bob Jane did a great job on your wheel alignment.....

How much have you guys spent on your alignments?

Did they get you to sit in the car as they did it?
