My dealer charged me about the same. That will be a 4 wheel alignment and not just a two. I was told by my SA that BMW only does 4 wheel alignments. I hope this helps.

You don't need a dealer to do an alignment at that price. The equipment and quite possibly the tire know how are much better at places like discount tyre, belle tyre etc -- that is ALL they do. You can get a great alignment and rotation at discount for ~ 100 bucks tops. Well worth it and highly reccomended. Use the dealer for stuff you can't get done elsewhere....not tyres man!

You should try GTS Motors, they are located in Bellrose, NY # 516-355-5500. They are pretty reasonable, they will give you quote over phone. Good luck.
