Tire Kingdom live off the unsuspecting car owner.
Unfortunately so do places like Meineke, Midas, and all the other franchises. Some are honest, but I think most are happy to take advantage of people's ignorance. With a less common car like a Saab --which the shops don't know much about to begin with-- it is probably even easier to take advantage of the average owner.
When I needed an align on my '96 9K I asked my indy who he used. He named a tire shop in my town. He said they are a little more expensive, but they always do the job right and don't try to scam the customer. He was right.
As for Tire Kingdom, tell the guy the car is a Saab, not a Taurus, so it doesn't need a "kit" to fix the alignment.
