South Bay Area CA Alignment recommendations
Had a terrible experience at Wheel Works to align my 71 911. Had to take it there twice and still not satisfied. Car needs toe and camber alignment, front end is light and doest track well.
WW claims they couldn't get the correct specs because the car is a race car? It as a roll bar and, upgraded elephant sway bars. Everything else is spec. |

Consider taking your car to Johnson Alignment, they know track set ups for 911's

Years ago I had a custom alignment at Michael and Company in San Jose. He did a great job on my 84. I have since moved.

IF your South Bay is the NorCal South Bay, Custom Alignment in Mountainview is the best in the area. Joe Silva, the owner, is a Shelby race fanatic and the shop is Porsche centric.

Which South Bay? Johnsons in Southern California South Bay is highly respected. I've heard good things about West End Alignment also.
