Need Alignment in the South Subs - Recomendations?

Just like the title says, new suspension = new alignment needed. I want a place that has experience with lowered cars.

The first place I took mine to didn't bother disconnecting the ABS wire bracket from the upper link in the rear resulting in them wrapping the wire around the link. I don't want a repeat of that ignorance.

Thanks!

A03 is an unknown quantity at this point
I asked the same question, and was recommended DeRe tire on 159th or Levin tire in Matteson. Both were not able to do my car in the time I had available and I ended up going to orland park Sears auto center. I was hesitant to let them do it, not knowing what level of experience the general store mechanics would have - but I guess I was lucky.. mine turned out okay. You can stand there and watch the whole thing if you want as well.. from when the mechanic gets into the car, until it's finished you can be in the shop area to view.

I don't know if they have guys who are experienced with lowered vehicles. The guy who did my car was a short, very skinny hispanic guy in his mid-late 20's. He worked and carried himself in a way that made him appear to care about his job, which I liked... maybe it's just cause I was standing around watching him the whole time he had my car. He figured out in short time that it was mine.

I would return to the same store again for the same service (if ever needed) based on my first visit.
