I just got my alignment done on Friday.
I called around.
Average price was $69.99-79.99 for a one time alignment.
Meineke offers a 1 year unlimited for about ~$89.99, and only a few locations can do actual alignments though. Had to call the location on the Southside and he said "Sure, I can do lifetime... if you want." (he sounded very...odd, not sure how/why, but I didn't want to trust him at all when speaking to him.) He quoted me ~$189.99 for the "lifetime" there.
NTB offers a 1 year unlimited for ~$99.99, and 3 year unlimited package (forgot what they quoted me on that one).

I went ahead and went with the $170 life-time unlimited package from Firestone. Best bang for your buck too.

What side of town you in? I know there's a $15 off coupon on Firestone's site you can print and have applied towards the package. Also, the location I went to, the manager gave me a $20 off discount. So, if you're near me, I'll give you his name to maybe hook you up too.

I confirmed this today. Went with a buddy of mine to get his alignment done.
Right now, they are running a 20% off special.
Comes out to be like ~$92.


Although...



I did come to find out, that they charge $3/ea time you go in for an alignment after purchasing the lifetime special.

If you need help with an alignment, I can do them at home. Not a hard task to complete.
