Default C5 track alignment

Where near Portland Oregon can I go for a track alignment. I would like to help with tire wear on track. What would the recommended specs be. Car is stock c5 vert, with roll bar, 2001. If I upgrade the sway bars will I need to realign? Tires are mpss.

Not from Oregon, but I just brought the specs to Firestone and had them do it. Paid for a lifetime alignment - so as I get faster I can have them adjust camber and toe for free.

Trackside Motorsports. They have done alignments on my Camaro and Corvette and understand track alignments. They can also help evaluate your current alignment based on your tire wear. Great guys.

Alignment Specialties in Aloha.
Did great work on my track only C3 and also my track only C5 Z06.
Bill, the owner, does the work and he is honest and will listen to you if want something specific.
