Default Enhanced Wheel Alignment?

Dealer recommended new tires for my 2016 S7 (at over $2000 for the set, brand not stated) plus an “enhanced alignment” that, when combined with the standard alignment, would cost over $700. I’ve never heard of an enhanced alignment. Have you?

I have a 2018 s7 , I had to get new tires around 17k miles. I didn't buy the tire from the dealer but when I went In for a oil change I was told I needed a alignment done whenever new tires are put on i was charged $350 for a alignment.

I changed the tires on my 2016 S7 twice. I ordered the tires from Tire Rack and shipped them directly to my Audi dealer. They mounted and balanced them (perfectly I might add) for less than any of the local dedicated tire stores would have. They never made any mention of needed to do any type of alignment. I think you are being taken advantage of here.....
