For best in town alignment I only trust my fleet to Kee Hin OKR (the little row of shoplots after the BHP station coming down the ramp from federal/ mid valley entering OKR) https://maps.app.goo.gl/fLeabncFpUircHjXA

Same price as what you paid..I just went there last weekend to have new tyres fitted.

Seems to hear about good words on Kee Hin Jln Klang Lama rather often.

RM25 is considered very very cheap, considering Kee Hin's rather good reviews/reputations.

May I know adjustments on your car (what car model?) is only done on Front Wheel only with un-adjustable Rear alignment angles?

No drifts/pulls to one side with a 12 o'clock straight steering wheel after alignment?

Yes correct. Runs true and straight. The old tyres worn very evenly throughout the tread face (no makan tepi).

This was for a 2014 mitsu mirage with the special edition 15in rims.
Adjustments only performed on front wheels only. Believe nothing much needed to be done on the rears.

The suspension drawing and deets at https://mirageforum.com/forum/showthread.ph...isions-changes)

As for this car too, since day 1, never changed any camber bolt/strut bolts.

Hmmm........... just an after-thought.

Vios Front is MacPherson suspension  probably whose Front camber comes without factory adjustment camber bolts.

If you haven't installed an after-market Front eccentric camber bolts set (and the alignment shop didn't offer this option to you), then they can't adjust your Front camber. However they should be able to adjust Front toes though.

The red you remarked could have meant Front camber(s), in which the alignment shop couldn't do anything without camber bolts?

Vios Rear suspension is torsion beam type without factory adjustments unless one go for some kind of mods.

Common scam tactic. Not that they can't, but they don't want to I guess. I have had to tell off some other infamous shop near Kemuning area that's pretty well known for cheap tyres to make it straight with the toe in toe out and don't BS on the camber as the alignment is a paid job. Must have thought me and my friend were noob waterfish customers.

Tyre price is similar as online price..
Alignment depends on your vehicle complexity.. normal city car very fast and cheap.. special case pickup truck one cost more (because it involve 2 seniors - the boss and one older uncle to do) "its not so much about the money but other places just cannot do and/or just simply hantam and rounded the nuts, and its still not picture perfect job"
