Any good tire and alignment shops south of Boston?

Would be great to find a place that can put tires on without destroying rims, actually does an alignment that is more than spending 5 minutes adjusting front toe and that's all, knows how to use the Hunter RF balancer to detect pull, etc.

I'm not in the Boston area so I can't help you out for a local shop, but does your ca pull one way or the other? Are you getting irregular tire wear? If not you may not need an alignment, also the dealer is most likely the best place to go because they put weights in the seats to simulate people in the car when thye align it. Most shops can't or dont do that. You can call around to tire shops and ask what balancer they use and their policy for scratching a customers wheels.

Are you me? Same car, same location...

As for your question, A full alignment at BMW Norwell is only ~$150 or so. Don't remember the exact amount, but it was a whole lot cheaper than I thought it would be.
