Lexus LS430, great car except ... help !

I mostly read here but need to find someone who repair my 2005 Lexus LS430 with 90,000 miles so that it follows straight roads better .... not asking too much right ?

All alignments show the rear is just very slightly out of spec, but it doesn't have an adjustable rear suspension so its a major repair that most say wont help the wandering anyway. No, the car was not hit - everyone agrees on that.



I have bought new wheels, and bought 4 sets of tires in 3 years, and looking for a guy who can help me and fix this.

I am in Toronto

Thanks

What if you switched out the suspension to something like KW or even a less expensive option than KW (plenty of different brands out there)... not only should that give you the adjustability / repair, but you will also gain better handling and comfort.

Replacing the suspension is unnecessary .... I just want the car to follow straight roads better.
All alignment places say the out of spec rear minimal and NOT the cause of the wandering anyway.
The car handles fine for my style of driving and is extremely comfortable now.

I need to find someone to identify bushing(s) / control arm(s) / steering component(s) / wheel(s) / tire(s) that are worn out, without replacing parts that are still functioning properly
