Default wheel alignment

I was told several times thet my xj8 needs wheel alignment. I was waiting to get new tires and now they are here I have a question: can I do the wheel alignment in the tire shop or there is some trick only a jaguar technitian can perform and it is recomended to be done in the dealership?

Not a huge price difference, but I'll need to schedule two separate appointements and waste more time.

as long as the tire shop is well staffed and has quality equipment and techs you could have it done there. be careful they dont scratch your wheels tho, especially if you have the 19s and/or chrome!
