    That just goes to show that you can't please everybody all the time. Just be sure that your clear of what you want to have done before you have it done. 99% of the time, good communication between the customer and the shop solves the problem before it ever happens.

      stay away from Tires Plus.

      Dave Henry pointed me to an alignment shop in Mhd - the guy who runs it is the tech inspector at IDR. They're reasonable and did a great job on my Supra. Can't think of the name of the place, but its by the big Anheiser Busch plant in the industrial park. I'd recommend those guys - cheap, good work, and they support the racers.

      DH - you remember the name of the business?

                yea I'm from Fergus.....Back when I lived there, I went to Tires Plus for all my oil changes/alignments etc. I was always pleased with them. Good customer service especially; there was one guy who always remembered me, and was real friendly.

                    IT's true, I've seen them. I use to work at Jiffy lube next door, So I would see them do the occasional "Tire test" or "spin" around the block. If you go in the back ally, you can see plenty of tire marks back there, and they aren't all from employee cars either.

                    That was a while ago however, but I do remember your yellow Evo being there once.

                    Oh yeah, don't take your car to the Jiffy lube. Ever.

                      Sorry to hear that. I can honestly say that NEVER would have happened to you here. But that's how it goes.

                        Umm, just do the brakes yourself, and then take it in to get the alignment. Wasn't Hayley going to lower it? If so, then just wait and align it after that.

                                What did they end up doing for the brakes, and what did they charge for it all?

                                  Got my alignment done at Valley Alignment and Repair in the Moorhead industrial park today. Good price and it was done fast!
