Why on earth would you go to the dealer? Go to a local shop that uses the Hunter Laser machine. You'll spend half as much and get better service. And, you'll be in and out much quicker than a dealer.
I paid $120 for my alignment when I got my 19's. I think mounting and balancing was around $50 for all 4 19" wheels, but then again, I had them mount my Blizzaks on my 18's, so I think they gave me a better deal the second time around.

yeah, why go to the dealer for that service, dealers are expensive as hell. just call a local tire shop(s) and ask how much... its that simple. different shops have different prices so just take a few minutes to make some calls and ask... if you have custom rims ask if they can work with them..

My dealer charged $159 for an alignment. This topic has been discussed here before and the price for an alignment from a dealer varies greatly.
Remember, these cars require a four wheel alignment, not just the front two. Some local garages do not have the equipment for a four wheel alignment.
