In hindsight I should have bought the tyres from one of the recommended shops but too late now as they have been paid for.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey all, Just ordered a new set of Michelin PS2s - 225/285 (04' 996 C2) which I'm having installed on loose wheels this Saturday. Thought it was also a good time to do an alignment as well. Anyone have any feedback on who's done their alignment (tyre shop, Indy or dealership). Can't do much with any specific recommendations as im not in the US. Just after some guidance on who's gone where and their experiences. Have been recommended two tyre shops here in Melbourne which came in at $70 and $110 and the OPC at $195. In hindsight I should have bought the tyres from one of the recommended shops but too late now as they have been paid for. Wondering if there is anything worth spending the extra money for by going to the OPC. Or is it just a fairly standard alignment which most reputable places can get done properly? Thanks!

POST 2Original post

Find a shop that specializes in race cars and have a performance string alignment done. Yes, it will cost more than an alignment shop, but if they know what they are doing, it will be a better alignment

thanks JayG, the OPC does have a motorsport division haha. Leaning towards having them do it in the hope they will set it all up correctly and my car will also be there for some other minor work as well.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I read through the service manual there is a fair bit to adjust front and rear I don't think a tyre shop would follow the exact torque specifications either.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
