Best shop to get an alignment done in TO IMO. Altech Automotive ask for Pat.

It depends if they altered the thrust angle by changing the rear.
It's not massively critical for street but it's a good idea to have it done each time.

A lot of Joe Blow shops don't realize it should be done or have the equipment to do it.
I'm pretty sure Altech has the goods though.
IIRC, Altech offers an E90post member discount. (At least they did at one time)

I have experienced my share of shoddy alignment shops, so if you find a good one stick with them.
......I really trust the guy that does mine now.

Great recommendation Adam!

Got an alignment done yesterday and Pat was extremely friendly and helpful. Can't wait to try it out on the track before the year ends

Thanks Ian for the suggestions on toe settings!
