Spring install - GTA

FYI - just booked an appointment to have Eibach sways installed at Street Performance on April 13th. Jimmy appears to be pretty highly recommended and quoted me a price of $170.

Read on some e90 forums that Altech Automotive in Etobicoke is great for alignments and charges around $70. Will keep you all posted on how it works out!

Street Performance - 416-450-6161
Altech Auto - 416-231-1611

Altech is amazing. They are almost always near perfect if not spot on. I would highly recommend.

A great place for spring installation is Migus auto work in Mississauga. Just had my Eibachs installed today. It looks amazing! No more 4x4 status.

I highly recommend Altech for alignments, they did an excellent job. One of my pet peeves is that I am so sensitive to even a slightly off center steering wheel. I mentioned this when I handed them my keys and they said not to worry. The results were bang on center and my alignment was made to specs, they even provide the print out.

You should mention that you are part of an automotive forum and the price was $60 cash. That's how much I paid for a 4 wheel alignment.

Make sure you go to the right Altech, apparently there are two shops with that name. The one being referred to here is Altech Automotive located at 384 Olivewood Rd, Etobicoke ON.
