As above really, I would like to get the alignment checked as there is a little bit of feathering on the outer edge of the front tyres. Ideally I would like the car laser aligned.
I have rang round several places in the Bristol and Bath area, all offering laser alignment and prices vary considerably.
Can anyone personally recommend a reputable establishment, in the Bristol/Bath area.

I believe pro tyre in Bristol are recommended by those more in the know than me. I would certainly rate them highly myself.

I've used pro tyre (lawrence hill) for my cars, never had any issues and they've always done a good job for me regardless of make!

Thanks for the help so far, FCM and ProTyre, were on my original list that I had phoned, I will contact both again and see who can get me booked in the soonest. Many thanks once again.

The guy who runs the alignment side of things at FCM was one of the best technicians at Protyre wink

Well, had it done this morning, it only needed a slight adjustment on the front, and paid the princely sum of £25. Only downside is I had to wait over an hour to be seen, as one of their ramps is out of action at the moment.

I had it done at ProTyre in Bristol in the end. As I said previously the only down side was having to wait over an hour, due to one of the ramps being out of action.

Rather than start a similar thread, has anyone got any good recommendations for a full alignment and geometry check?

Would like to get my ATR setup nicely.

FCM do all my stuff, I had a clutch this week. They have mapped, fitted and recommended loads of stuff and all of it has worked fantastically.

Highly recommended
