Thumbs up Cobb Tuning - Alignment

I stopped by Cobb Plano yesterday to get my alignment done. I must say Kevin took care of me. As worrisome as I am about my car on ramps and scraps/scratches, they went the extra mile to ensure my car left the way it came in (plus properly aligned wheels that is). I look forward to doing business with them again.

Thanks Kevin!

Note: Don't go into the back storage room with Kevin...he will try to pimp his AP on you unsuspectingly! Smooth talker that one!

Good to hear another positive comment for Cobb. I'll be getting some camber plates in the near future and Cobb will be the place I go to get the alignment done.

Glad to hear! I plan to use Cobb for an alignment too once I get my springs installed.

Cobb has aligned my cars more than a few times and has always done a good job.

It took them about 45 minutes. I am not sure about open late but they are open on Saturday by appointment.

Alignments take 45-60minutes usually. We're open until 6 and for an alignment, we'd definitely ask you to be here by 5:15. However, we are open 9-6 on saturday, so if you want to PM me, I can definitely try and make an appointment for you.

Nice, great work as usual. I may be using Cobb for an alignment if Kevin can give me some good news on some suspension stuff I need.

Cobb did my alignment and my spring install. I had them flip the camber bots also. Car drives awesome. They did a hell of a job.

Should I wait for new wheels and tires before I get the alignment? I will be using COBB. Also what would they charge to adjust the height on the coilovers (if yall even do that) and do an alignment?

Technically yes, but the only real reason you would need to is either you are going with bigger or smaller wheels/tire or your rims are out of whack somehow. I chose to do mine prior to my wheels, but only due to that fact that my factory alignment was chewing up my tires. I just installed some tires on my stock wheels that I plan to install on my new wheels, so I didn't want them running toe wear prior to the swap and have to buy another $800 set. $100 to save a set of tires is a good deal in my book...

Oh yeah, did you get that J-tube yet?!
