Wheel Balancing - Atlanta Area
I know I saw this topic before, but I couldn't find it....
Anyone know of a good reliable place to get my wheels balanced here in Metro-Atlanta?
Thanks!

Gran Turismo East in Chamblee is the best in town at balancing and alignment. They understand. They encourage you to sit in your car during alignment so the settings are as you want them including drivers weight.

Thanks Jack and Hsss427.
I have an appointment tomorrow at GTE. I called today and I wish I'd gotten the person's name I talked to, but they were incredibly helpful and surprisingly excited about balancing wheels! I honestly believe that my wheels / tires have no real problems outside of them being out of balance. Hopefully, after tomorrow that will be resolved. Either way, I get the impression that GTE will be able to tell me.
Thanks again!

Yes,
I believe they will do anything related to balance, tires, alignment, shocks other suspension issues.

They balanced my wheels today. Friendly and professional. I had someone balance the wheels a couple of weeks ago and it still had the shakes. After today, smooth as glass.... (and they were pretty darn cheap).

Ask for Harris or Jeff for those in the future who go to Gran Turismo. They set up top race cars all the time, some people come from miles and stop at GTE for an alignment before an event at Road Atlanta. Top notch, I had them do my Cobra 6 weeks ago, and source my tires from them.
