Alignments & Corner Balancing

A proper alignment can make a bad car good, and a good car excellent. A lot of “performance” shops totally neglect alignment services, due to the equipment cost and the difficulty finding a talented suspension & steering technician. Some are more than happy to sell and install a new set of coilovers or lowering springs, but then refer you to a national tire chain for your alignment. These tire store chains are who we must thank for the phrase “toe and go”. They may have the equipment, and some may even have a technician who understands suspension and steering, but they are limited to aligning the vehicle to “Stock Specs” as per their policies typically.

That’s where R/T Tuning is able to shine. We have a state-of-the-art Hunter Digital Alignment Machine. We have alignment technicians that have spent the last 15 years specializing in under car performance. We will typically only schedule 2 alignments per day, and that is because most of the vehicles we see have heavily modified suspensions that require time and focus to set up right.

• Electronic Vehicle Ride Height Measurement System: Which allows us to set your coilovers to equal levels.
• Electronic Corner Weighting: This allows us to balance your cars weight by adjusting the suspension. It makes sure each wheel has the same amount of weight on the ground. Or you can shift the weight where you need it. Doing this makes the car easier to handle and allows you to make faster lap times.
• Integrated Bump Steer Measurement System: Basically, this system moves the car through its suspension travel to see where the numbers move and if you’re getting bump steer. Then we can get the proper parts to fix the issue.
• Laser Sensors: You don’t have to remove bumpers like you do on some other types of machines.
• Special Adapters: Safe for all wheel types. Won’t leave scratches.
• Flush mount style lift accommodating even the lowest cars.

R/T Tuning is also heavily involved in all sorts of motorsports and have done full suspension and alignment set ups for several types of race cars including: Formula D drift cars, Global Time Attack cars, Honda Challenge cars, HPDE, NASA, AER, and SCCA, Hill Climb, Drag cars, you name it, we’ve aligned it.

R/T Tuning does not just align race cars all the time, we have set up countless street cars, with everything from a totally stock suspension to lowering springs or coilovers and airbags. We have done it all. Feel free to reach out to us to discuss your vehicle handling goals.
