Thought some of you who do home alignment might find this a good, new alternative.

I was taught how to string align by a Wizard!

String alignment is MORE accurate than alignment bed IMO.

And more "repeatable"...

The only way you can see bed variation is to do a "perfect" alignment on a bed, test drive the car (where you notice problems) and chuck that car back up on the exact same bed, then have different numbers...

It ALL depends on the technician for either process.

He preferred string over bed any day.

I'm not so sure about the I-phone set up in the first point.

It looks like a $20 piece of plastic with a subscription...

I'll wait till I see results from others!

All of the current wheel balancers have a computer making the selection of weights and their placement choices for you.

The previous "style" had two analog needles showing amount of variation and placement.

Once again, you DID have to know what you were doing!

The new balancers allow a monkey to do an "acceptable" job...

You could balance wheels to much lower tolerances with the old school balancers!
