Anthony 98 GTS is infamous around these parts

Alignment Shop in H-Town

.........finally after almost 6 months I got my P-car back on the road......

While on the tow truck I noticed the right rear is really worn on the inside and I am in serious need of an alignment...

Any recommendations in H-town??

Go to Porsche of West Houston and ask for Akram. He has been taking very good care of my 996tt. I was extremely happy with the alignment he did for me a couple months ago.

I've heard the alignment shop on Star Lane (can't remember the name) is really good.

I found it:

Euro Wheel Alignment‎

Does anyone know if they have the tech module for the steering angle?

Kinda reminded me of that old guy from the movie "Christine".

So, who really knows how to deal with the alignment of a lowered 996 (PSS9) in Houston? The manual has in bold on every other page of the alignment section that you need to recalibrate the steering angle when you do the alignment or the car will implode and then explode. And it can only be calibrated with their special tool (of course).

I hate dealers, so I'm looking for an independent that has the right equipment...
