    need to install my 19" wheels, but before i do would like to have them balanced. wondering if anyone has any recommendations for places in bergen county that have the capability and can put my wheels on without scratching them.

    appreciate the feedback.

    eurotire.

    the only choice in this area IMO.

    just got my car back from them and its perfect (4 wheel alignment after coilover install, and rebalancing my 4 wheels to chase down a vibration). She drives true, and there's NO wheel vibration left anymore.

    Yeah! Rayco... if you want to have your car outsourced to someone else to do the work, and have an employee joy riding your car back and forth. And lets not forget the awesome prices that change depending on mood.

    Action Tire is pretty good. There is another good one in Ft. Lee. Check with Phil.

    if you are talking about action tire on 46 stay away. after two weeks and countless rebalancing and tire rotations i finally had the replace my stock wheels. guess what no vibration. all i did was change rims. same tire and same size rim. now i have wheels that they didn't want to refund. now i have to take them to make sure the wheels are true. if they are not then i will go back and fight for my money back.

    most of the time vibration can be caused by overtorqued lug bolts/nuts. most of these places use their air guns a little too much. i had the same issue a few years back. i decided to use the proper torque settings for my wheels and they were fine.

    Action Tire is terrible man. Notorious for fucking up people's wheels... and for not knowing how to balance a wheel.

    Fort Lee Tire on Lemoine? Pass. Those guys are assholes.

    [most of the time vibration can be caused by overtorqued lug bolts/nuts. most of these places use their air guns a little too much. i had the same issue a few years back. i decided to use the proper torque settings for my wheels and they were fine.]
    i let them rebalance and rotate the wheels, i even watched them use a torque wrench so i guess it has to be the wheels. they gave me some bullshit that it's the tires. they have 2500 miles on them.
    Since the car is new i hardly even push them to the limit yet. but since i made them put the stocks back now its perfect again. THEY SUCK!

    Thanks for the info guys. Eurotire I hear is great, but it's a little ways away from me. Hence my interest in something in Bergen.

    Alvin, I'll give Phil a ring...
