My Corvette(s):
2006 C6 Coupe
Default Wheel Alignment Shop - Northeast (NJ, PA)

Would like to get the alignment checked on my C6. By my selling dealers own admission, their Alignment Machine isn't the most accurate. Taking the car to Goodyear, STS etc... is not something I prefer.

Can anyone recommend a precise Allignment Shop in the NJ, PA, NY area?

Hi there,
I would suggest you check the Hunter website for further information on who is the most capable in your area.
But, if you are under 12,000 and there has been NO damage, this should be covered by your warranty.
Allthebest, c4c5

When my c-6 comes in before it even leaves the dealer the alignment will be ajusted. They have Hunter and there good.Your doing the smart thing if you want 30-40,000 miles on those tires.Good luck--Steve

HI there,
HOnestly, I wouldnt do that.
Only because as the vehicle is driven and springs break in, along with bushings, tires and the like, the settings may and usually do change.
I usually recommend that after 3000 miles or one year, then you have it checked.
Allthebest, c4c5

I don't disagree with you,In my case which I should have not recommended as blanket to all,will probably get done twice during the first 5000 miles.
