Alignment in Dallas
Anyone have a recommended place for alignment in the Dallas area? Particularly the Firestone locations in Plano?

I had mine done at Van Chevrolet on I35 in Carrollton. They did a good job. Ask for Billy Gregg in the Service Dept. He knows Corvettes.

I use the Goodyear store (corner of Coit and Hedgcox).
They will do 4 wheel alignment.
Alignment rack accepts lowered Vettes.
Person doing the alignments appears to be very qualified.
Never had an issue with the service.

Did you bring them exact specs to align it with, or did they use the factory specs with a tolerance range for the settings?
