Yup, I got my last one done at Right Tyre services think it was around $50.00 and bit cheaper if you bought tyres from them. I travelled from Levin cause I sick of the local Tonys store F**kn up the job up. NEVER will I go back to Tonys.

Ring up the Tony's customer service line(not the branch) and say you have been quoted $59 by some place and they should better the price and give you a code to quote to the branch you go to! a couple of mates have done it before

Na Tonys can jam it. The guy said the $110 was a special deal down from $169. No doubt they would probably tell me I need 4 new tyres as well. Now I know why/how they do the 'free puncture repair' thing. By shafting everyone else. You shouldn't need to run your hand over all 4 tyres before you are able me a price for a rotation.

Go to Bates. Pretty hard to beat them on a good job. They have a very good reputation for getting it right.

Yes, this - but ask them to make sure the steering wheel is centred.Twice they have done my alignment and both times the steering wheel was off-centre.

considering one of thethings you do before adjusting is to centre and lock the steering wheel in straight ahead position .that's not a good sign.

Locking it centered on a perfectly level hoist and driving down the road are worlds apart, operators should always road test afterwards and correct steering wheel offset.

Although ideally If there is steering wheel offset after the alignment the road test should be to help diagnose the reason for offset.
