You don't say what kind of job you need. Is there a problem with the alignment, like something is bent?
If the tires are just wearing poorly, most Chevy dealers and large tires store can do an adequate 4 wheel alignment.

Like I said, those adjustments are part of an ordinary 4 wheel alignment for street, which most most dealers, or large tire dealers can do. If there's something out of spec, and can't be adjusted, then you might need an alignment specialist. Are the tires wearing uneven, or do you have a handling problem? What are you using the car for, track or street?

Best tire wear and good handling if you get it precisely aligned to the PFADT pure street settings. Insist that they get it exact.
