Need a good wheel alignment

Since I've installed the adjustable upper and lower a arms, manual rack, and coilovers up front. I'm in need of a major wheel alignment. Please don't recommend American Tire, I've gone there twice, and its been a pita working with them each time. I've heard Chets on Menaul is good. I really want to go somewhere that deals with cars with aftermarket adjustable suspension frequently. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I've been going to Blue Castle on Isleta. I heard that Firestone does lifetime alignments for like $150 so I might try them

Chet's is good, kinda pricey, but I've been happy there. You should call and ask what kind of experience they have with aftermarket stuff, I'm curious.

I'm really not worried about the price as long as it gets done right. I'll call Chet's tomorrow.

Let's see specializes in alignmments with aftermarket suspension and wheels. I'd say any shop in the south valley with the amount of low riders there lol. But on a serious note, the only person I trust with my car for stuff like that is daniel at pep boys (boostingSS). Not anyone at pepboys just him lol. He's done most of the suspension and alignments on my cars.
