    it depends on how low your car is. awhile back i took my integra to gran tourismo and it was too low for them to align. i didn't consider my car slammed back then but it was pretty low...

    only spot i found that could do it then (and that i still go to now) is kauffman tire up in alpharetta. their alignment machine is sunken into the ground so you can drive right on it (no ramps). they do a pretty good job too...

    i took my car to tirestar in pleasant hill on sat. blvd. if ur steering wheel is straight you don't need an alignment, i found that out after i have already goten an alignment for my car. what you need is the camber toes to adjust your camber wear if your having camber wear on your tires for dropping your car, if your alignment is straight, an alignment is not gonna fix ur camber wear.

    Couldn't be further from the truth. Btw, what are camber toes? I do alignments for a living and have never heard of these.
