if your car is lowered go to crown brake and steering on dixie/dundas. they charge $89.99 plus tax. It isn't that bad of a deal.

It's hard for anyone to give you advice on where to go if you don't tell us where you live or a general area.

You could probably get your toe adjusted at any Honda dealer or like you said "any ol' tire shop".

at least make sure wherever you go is experienced in aligning lowered vehicles

amusing...

I never said i had a lowered car, my crx is stock. I'm putting winters on and would just like to align the wheels... 90 bucks+tax is alotta money, i've seen $75 tax in... i'm looking for info from people who've gone to a place that's been decently priced and did a good job. Anyone have experience doing it themselves? i can adjust my toe, but the camber is what i'm really concerned about.

thanks

I don't think Honda's have any camber adjustment unless you have an adjustable kit. Only toe I think.

I can't justify paying a dealer or crappy tire (who i worked for and saw their quality of work) something when there are much better privates shop out there that would do quality work. I'm not disputing the fact that cars cost money, its just if your smart you'll realize you can save money.
