Denver Area front end alignment
Anyone in the Denver area able to recommend a shop for alignment of my 2006 Vert. I have just over 20K on the Goodyear Eagle F1's. I have wear on RF inside edge and LF both inside and outside edges of the Front tires. Tire wear is not even. I am looking to have alignment checked then I will go for new tires. Rear tires still look great for 20K with even wear. I will be replacing all with the Firestone Firehawk Wide Oval RFT.
Any Alignment Shop recommendations for the Denver, CO Area?

When looking to have a flat fixed I received several recommendations for Purifoy Chevrolet. If I can't find anything closer or a shop that comes with a can't miss recommendation, I will probably give Purifoy a call. Thanks for the recomendation.

A great lil shop that I have used many times... The best part is that it is a pit you roll on, not up onto. Does custom alignments and doesn't mind you getting into the pit and helping out.

Melting Slicks
Standard shop rate for an alignment $129.xx ( at 1.75 hrs)
They charged me 4 hrs X $95/hr.
I originally wanted both a street and track aligment that I could swap out between track events. but I didn;t want to pay for TWO at $400EACH!!!
I now do my own aligments at home. tire wear has been great both street/track since after 7,500 mles.
good luck in your search....

First I want to thank everyone for their help and input. It appears there are several good shops in the Denver Area. The Tire Source at 2828 30th St in Boulder, Elroy & Sons at Colfax & Chase followed by Purifoy. The Tire Source in Boulder is Tire Rack friendly, mounting new tires, balancing and performing alignments for a reasonable price. My plan is to contact The Tire Source and have them install my new tires and perform the alignment. If I were just needing an alignment I would go with Elroy & Sons. Purifoy, while doing good work is by far the most expensive.
