By the way, I went to Crappy Tire because they're open on Saturdays and are close by.

Lesson learned. Again.

How about Kerry Burk in Buckingham 281-9562

Bob Loblaw · 06-06-2005, 09:36 PM

Does he have the equipment to do alignments, though?

And is he open on Saturdays?

aziz · 06-06-2005, 10:05 PM

alain, call shawn @commercial tire on startop, did mine there for $89.....let him know i sent u.

edit: i think they are booking for sat...744 1100.

Bob Loblaw · 06-06-2005, 10:07 PM

$89? That's a little steep, isn't it?

aziz · 06-06-2005, 10:16 PM

i know another pace for 59...lil dirty though.

aziz · 06-06-2005, 10:18 PM

btw...crappy tire starts at 49/59 i think....but by the time they do some adjustments, u'd pay 100+ taxes in. happened to me....nobody warned me.

I don't know about Kerry but I know Jay could probably swing you in on a Saturday...

Bob Loblaw · 06-07-2005, 10:58 AM

Thanks again for all the help, guys. I'll be dropping the car off tomorrow night at Kerry Burke's place and they'll work on it Thursday.

Need a ride home? Or you feel like doing something?

i doubt that is possible on E30's

Bob.. It doesn't take any special equipment to do a front end alignment on an e30.. the only adjustment is the toe via the tie rods on the rack. so even an old school alignment shop can take care of that (it should never cost more then $50-$60) It can even be done in the comfort of your own driveway with some patience.. just make shure where you go they don't center the wheel by pulling it off.. center your rack then put the steering wheel on top dead and mark it with some calk so you can tell if they took the steering wheel off.

after all you don't want thoes tires rubbin in parking lots cause some shop took a short cut

Thanks for the offer. Kerry said he'll lend me a car, so it's all good. I don't think I wont't be able to stay in Buckyland, though. Thanks anyways.

That's what I figured. That's why I found it odd that Crappy Tire couldn't do it...

Didn't think of that. Thanks for the heads up!
