Best place for geometry and alignment check in West Midlands

Post by si_b » Fri May 05, 2017 9:27 am

I've had a quick search on the forum, but not found anything relevant.

I'm after any personal recommendations for places in West Mids (Wolverhampton and West if poss) that can carry out proper geometry and alignment checks and also that you'd trust changing your tyres on the diamond cut 21" alloys.

I've seen people recommend getting the RS6 set up on the Hunter equipment and see there are a number of places locally that use that equipment, but no personal recommendations.

Cheers.

Si

A-line in Dudley (Wellington road) . I've used them in the past and they were good (know the guys for over 18 years). Then heard bad stories but a few have used them on here and have nothing but good things to say.
I wouldn't put up on here when you're going as its a bit bad in the Midlands for Audi theft.

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there!

I just had mine done (SQ5) at Listers Audi Stratford upon Avon. They have a Hunters there. Speak to Jack Mattthews (master tech) and tell him I sent you. He is as particular as we are to always get things perfect.

Centre of Gravity in Atherstone just off the M42 / A5 come highly recommended and have been used by a number of forum members including myself. They aren't cheap but they know how to set the car up so that you will get the best out of it for the type of driving that you do. Made a significant difference with my RS4 and I know getting the RS6 set-up well can make a huge difference in how it handles.

Forgot, Kingswinford tyres too. Only 10 mins from A-line. Both of these are 15mins from Wolvo as long as there isn't a match on!
