Alignment Shop in 626

I'm thinking of going to King's Tire in El Monte for a wheel alignment this weekend. Anybody been there and do you recommend it or do you recommend any other spot in the 626? Do they care if your car has spacers on it?

Since West End doesn't open weekends this in not an option.

Do mine every 6000 miles, 4 wheel computerized alignment at American tire depot in Covina. 150 for lifetime alignment. They do good work just ask for Robert.

Ken's Delta Tire in Montebello does some good work for a fair price. Not super crazy awesome like West End, but solid. Or I could take your car down to West End since I work in the vicinity, but you or I could be an axe murderer. LOL.

What about Firestone Tires in Pasadena? Anyone ever been there? Recommend it?

Do the places mentioned so far align the car with weights or someone sitting in it?

I've seen corner balancing done at West End, with the driver in the car, to get it ready for autocross.
