Wheel Alignment
I will be getting a wheel alignment done on the C5 after the weather gets better. What is the best alignment machine? I had the tires balanced on the Road Force machine as was recommended by many of the CF members.

Most of the current tehnology is the same where ever you go. The difference is how the equipment is maintained. The surface must stay level and true. It is supposed to be callibrated on a regular basis. Some shops do it some shops don't. Equal to the callibration of the equipment is the tech setting it up. The laser sights can be off by a little, and the spec's are often a very wide allowance. Be sure you dont have a tech that figures that's "close enough" Get a printed report of the before and after specs. be sure to get one printed in color, because you can see very quickly if the specs are within range because it is usually in green is OK and red is out of allowable tollerances.
Good luck I am sure there are good shops in your area.
