Default Alignment C7

Recently lowered C7 (2017 GS) on stock bolts, and read that an alignment should be done. Any recommendations near Tacoma to have the proper alignment done.

Thanks

While it's not super close to Tacoma, I take my C7 Z06 to Cantrell Motorsports in Bellevue. Colin, the owner, is very meticulous in his (and his mechanics) attention to detail, including putting weights in the driver's seat to simulate your weight. I bought the tool needed for adjusting the caster, which Colin bought from me so he has one for doing other C7s.

Glad to help - I've been taking my car there since I almost totaled my 2008 coupe in 2009 - they did an excellent job rebuilding the car and suspension. I was very impressed with their work.

Wanted to +1 on Cantrell - all of the above, plus they offered a great compromise setting for occasional auto-x while not going through tires on the street. Super nice folks.
