I recently installed some new rubber on my C5 Z06 so i wanted to make sure my alignment was in proper spec. I was leaning towards heading over to Southwest Alignment but found out Greg the ex owner is no longer there. After reading around reviews, a friend suggested Sal's Auto Sport.

I went there today and was blown away by the experience. My car is lowered way beyond the oem specs and they had zero issues getting me on the alignment machine. From the get go they followed me through every part of the procedure. Turns out my car was very far from being within specs. Sal did the work himself and took his time to make sure nothing was overlooked.

After the work was completed, he rode with me in my car to make sure everything was running smoothly. I can easily say his shop has my business as a lifetime customer. Sal has owned corvettes and knows our cars very well. I just thought i'd throw it out there for anybody looking for a good suspension/alignment shop in Houston.

the best shop in housotn for alignments, Sal has been doing alignments for 20+ years. He has owned a few C6's in the past and currently has a ZL1 Camaro so he knows performance alignments as well.

Sal and Oscar are th eonly ones in houston i would currently let align my car as Vic at VZ Autoworks currently doesnt have a alignment machince.

Sal's Autosport is where 510 Race Engineering and VZ Autoworks send all the cars and customers to have alignments done.

they also are very good with car audio and alarms.

They're still in the same lot, just on the opposite side of the building. If you look at the suite they were previously in it will have a note stating that they've moved.

Allzwell

That's good to know -

I didn't know that Greg wasn't at Southwest any more, they had been doing all my work

They are still in the same place. They gave up the large display showroom in the front of the complex adn built a small showroom right there in there shop area. just being the 2 of them they were never in the front anyway and i cant imagine what it cost to rent that huge showroom.

That's where I'll be going.

I saw that you mentioned Southwest alignment. If your referring to the one on Richmond just west of Dunvale That is now a no go. Went there last year had my old C5 done. What a joke. Had to have it all fixed. Never again. And England Green suggested it, I called Stephen and suggested he quit pimping those guys.

Southwest tanked since Greg left. I did not realise at the time that he was gone. Sorry Joe.

Looking to lower my car on factory bolts tonight and then have it re-aligned tomorrow. What was the cost?

Thanks!

I think it varies by wheel size etc. I'd call them to get an estimate.
Tell them Maxx sent you.

danieloneil01

Drive it for a week before getting that done.

Zishan

That's a good idea....I should let it settle before aligning. Thanks for the reminder!

Honestly, alignment using a Hunter machine is quite simple. I usually end up going to where ever is cheapest that will let me watch the process.
