Last month I did a search on beyond for a good alignment shop but came up with few results. I thought I share my experience.

My tire- $79.99
They have a new machine= good
Had a some difficulty getting onto the machine with a lowered Audi TT= bad
The technician doesn't know much about european cars and is not a mechanic. I also had a rear camber kit installed and he insisted that this was not the case and not adjustable. He did not want to touch the car as it was too complicated for him, so I left. Anand the owner was great but :thumbsdow for the tech. =Bad

CMS/ok tire- $74.99
They have a good machine that had no problems with getting my lowered car on it= good
The technician is also a mechanic and has good experience (his name was Rob, a real cool guy).=Good
Was able to get my car back into spec and also knew how to adjust the rear with my camber kit =Good
Took him 2hrs to adjust my car as best as he could= Better than being sloppy and quick.

Verdict= CMS highly recommended but leave enough time to get the job done.

I've done some alignment work b4 and they can either take a lot of time or almost no time at all:D
