Are they using lasers instead of panels? I had that problem before at the last shop I worked at. Car was so low that I couldn't get the lasers low enough to get under the front bumper. Told the customer they could take the bumper off and come back.

What kind of machine do you all use. Old place I worked at we did it at normal price. Didn't hardly take me much more time than a standard tire. I have to vouch for our equipment though, it did the hard work. Also the appropriate use of ether and flame helped from time to time with the stretched ones.

Merchants on Va Beach Blvd. mounted my 205's on a 9inch rim for 18 bucks a wheel?
