				Need recommendation for alignment in Cincinnati area
			 
			I'm going to put some new rubber on the 930 and I need recommendations for a shop to do this as well as corner balance and alignment.  Does anyone have first hand experience with anyone around here?

			The best place is Performance Alignment. They are very highly recommended and know Porsche's very well!  http://www.performance-alignment.com/

			That's who I was going to take it to but I stopped by and nobody even came to the desk to help me.  I tried getting the attention of the guys in the back but no luck.  Also, I realize the looks of a shop shouldn't matter but that place was a severe dump!!!  If they are as good as you say and others vouch I'll take it there.

			I lived in Cincinnati for 20+ years, and I'm also familiar with Bill's work. As  carrerax said, he's the best. You might try calling first, or if you can't get anyone's attention from the front, just walk into the shop and ask to speak to Bill. Joe

			Well, I had the work done today.  You guys were right, he IS good.  The car feels amazing now.  Best of all?  Tires mounted, aligned, and corner balanced for $398.  WOW!
