Re: bad vibes



actually,I was with the guy in the alignment bay when he did the work.From
what I could see, the machine was indicating that the car was "dead on" I am
in Fullerton and would definetley appreciate any  advise on alignment  and
or any watercooled shops in the area (OC) or LA.  I also saw something in
European car (I Think) about a  new tire balancing machine that  balances
the tire wheel assembly  like it was on the car? Heard any thing about this?
thanks for the reply
