I had an alignment done by a shop that's usually pretty good but did not seem to know anything about the Evo and I don't think they did a good job.

I'm looking for an alignment shop in the Chicago area that knows the Evo well.

Any recommendations?

Jump23: After lowering my car with tein-s springs i had same problem, i paid and it seems like something was still not right i decided to call my buddy who is a mechanic at mercedes dealer (and friend of his is doing an aligments all day long for few years) he charged me only $40 let me know if you are interested, PM me with any suspension questions, btw your car has stock suspension? later.

currently I have stock suspension but it was pulling to the left real bad. The other shop I went to made it a little better but it still has a noticeable pull to the left.

I will be installing Eibach springs, front and back strut bars and rear sway bar pretty soon and I'll need to get the alingment done.

Where's your friend's shop located? I'm definitely interested in having them look at my car once I'm done with the supension mods

I recommend Addison Wheel Alignment in Addison, Illinois. I had two of my friends (WRX STi and Celica GTS, both cars with Tein suspension systems) get their alignment done there. I'll be soon to follow.

I know the thread is old (RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE!), but I just wanted to comment that I called up that shop and they quoted me $128.00 for this alignment setup on stock bilsteins:

front: -1.5 camber
0.0 toe

Rear: -0.5 camber
0.1 toe

Seems kinda high to me but they are the first place I called.

I get my alignments done there too. He is a little pricey, but exteremely thorough, and will do his best to get you to the specs you give him.

The specs you posted should be easy for him. He was able to get

front: -2.0 camber
0.0 toe

Rear: -1.0 camber
0.1 toe

on my stock 03 suspension no problem.

Most of the Chicago Region SCCA guys use him because he is so good.

I had a real bad pull to the left after I installed the Quaife and the KW coilovers, and he cured that really easily.
