Alignment Shop in GTA with F8X experience

Looking for a really good alignment shop in the GTA that will do a exceptional job on my F82. I will be lowering my ride this weekend hopefully and will wait a few days for the suspension to settle before getting a alignment.

Would love to hear who you guys trust and who has the best alignment machine. The last time I did a alignment was after lowering my E46 M3 and that was 6 years ago. Im looking for a shop that will handle the car like a baby and dial in everything evenly and not just within specs. Someone with F8X experience.

Thanks.

I liked Apex Motoring in Mississauga. They can set up your car nicely for track or street. I plan to go soon as I lowered my car earlier this month.

Apex Motoring seems to be one of the best, do you guys know if they load weight in the car before performing alignment?

I've been going to Altech for my f80 m3 and no complains.

I just booked an appointment with apex motors to see how they are based on good recommendations.

I'm sure either or is a good choice.

Does anyone have any experience or recommendations with alignments for lowered cars in the west end - Hamilton / Guelph / Cambridge / Kitchener / Brantford etc?

I will be at Apex on Monday.

Apex does have a hunter machine for low cars.

I'll take some pics if allowed and do a write up. Will show pics of before and after alignment sheet. Really wanna see how well they can hit symmetry and not just within specs!

Apex Motoring

Just finished a 4 wheel alignment job at Apex Motoring.

Job took 1 hour and staff is amazing. Very punctual and professional!

Cost is $120+ tax.

I have attached pictures of alignment sheet and hunter hawkeye elite machine they use.

They use touchless on each rim so you won't get any mounting scratches!

So far car drives like first day I got it. I waited 10 days for new lowering springs to settle before going in.
