Normal pricing:

Balancing: RM5 to 10 per tire
High-speed balancing (on-wheel): RM10 to 15 per tire
Alignment: RM20 to 25 per section (front or rear)
Camber adjustment: RM25 to 30 per tire
Camber screw: RM30 to 35 per piece
Tampal tayar: RM5 to 7 per hole

any higher than above can be considered overcharging.

tire rotation shouldn't cost any to be honest.

I think we need to compile the list of shops that provide cheapest service for balancing/alignment.

Long time ago I thought RM 50 for balancing/alignment is cheap.
Now I found another shop that charges only RM 25 for balancing/alignment.
I have been using them since then.

if you are using standard absorbers with no suspension mods, you do not need to worry about camber at all.

sometimes, we just want to go for alignment and balancing but halfway during the work, the shop might want to add like camber settings are out, and when they found out you have already got the 'adjustable camber screw', they will told you the screw may need replacement because already being 'abused' etc

the location is in sri rampai, in rampai business park.
the shop name is pjl united.
it has big continental signage.

the tyres there are expensive, but the alignment/balancing is good.
some services is good but some service is just so so.

Did my Alignment + Balancing for all 4 wheels @ RM49 + 6% tax. So total was RM51.95.
Not sure whether they're allowed to charge the tax though.

I'd say the price is reasonable.
Mine was done at Equine Autocare (Goodyear).

Adjust camber normally RM20 per tire
Alignment around RM20-RM25
Tire balancing is RM5 per tire

But of course this is a general pricing

Different vehicle types will get different pricing

mean alignment and adjust camber is 2 different thing?
what is alignment actually? getting confuse....

Those shops are bullshit. Everytime i go to make alignment/balancing they will show numbers on the machine which i dont understand shit.

Just think about it. Have u ever go to alignment shop and they say your alignment is STILL alright and no need to adjust anything?

when u drive on malaysian road how can u expect the alignment to be alright each time u check?

Ive been driving for at least 5 years. U think i dont know how to avoid potholes? My friends all know how careful i drive, they always ask me "why i drive like unker?"

U think the car industry so stupid to make lauyah shock absorbing system?
If all car alignment is this fragile then better dont make car lahh. 

Camber alignment is not that hard to adjust, what else the nuts. If so expensive then it is supposed to hold and not being move every time u hit a pothole! Its what camber nuts are designed to do.

Their machine also donno how long never calibrate. Bought cheap from china with no maintenance.

I think camber and alignment service is scam. Shop can sell cheap tire but their margin proit actually come from "camber adjust and nuts"

But of course, this is just my opinion.

good explaination..then u should avoid doing alignment for your car.everytime the tyres botak,changing tyres are enough.
as i know, alignment machine ain't cheap though even it is from china.noticed most shop used branded machines like wonder and corghi for most place.maybe coincidently u went to the lower end shop using china machines with no maintainance.so chill ya..

How much the charges for changing tyres? I bring own tyres.

Balancing RM5 per tyre, alignment RM35.
