Tire/Wheel Shop Recommendation-San Diego

Morning guys,

Does anyone have a recommendation for a San Diego area equivalent to Wheel Enhancement's LA shop? Someone who knows Porsche, or at least could be trusted to mount and balance restored, and expensive (to me), Fuchs? Someone who knows the valve stem issue with deep 6's and can maybe even give spacer advice, or is that too much to ask?

Good question. The only advice I have is to NOT GO TO COSTCO.

Thanks Cory, I'll try it. Also had a plug for C2 Motorsports.

In case it helps someone down the road, my recommendation now is for "C2 Motorsports" in the Kearny Mesa area. (I should have know to just call an OG RGruppe buddy from the start.) Its a local race gear and vehicle race prep shop. They took extremely good care of my wheels, mounting/balancing them with expertise. Good group of guys, very friendly, who really support the local Auto-Cross community. Plus, they stock their own supply of the appropriate valve stem for deep 6's and 7R's. They know their Fuchs, which was a nice treat

Agree C2 Ron and Matt can handle any wheel and tire.
I just drop off my rims/tires.
