Question Wheel Shop in Seattle area you trust?

Thinking about switching my Volk RE30's for something else but using my tires. So would need a good shop to mount and balance on new rims. Wondering what yall recommend.

Speedware motorsports in Redmond works with high end wheels and i've never heard of or seen them do ANY damage to wheels when mounting/ballancing.

And they also use a cover on wheel weights so they dont fall off.

Ask for Drew and tell him Ryan sent you, he should give you a good price.

Isn't speedware that shop that works on a lot of German cars?

Edit: NM I just googled it. They're all really cool there. They walked me around that entire shop and made a great impression on me. I was going to bring my corrado there for some engine work but I got smart and bought an evo. I've also heard mixed reviews about certain things from them but I do not know personally. From what I have seen everything there looks nice and they work on some serious builds!! They have so many nice cars there even race cars. I bet they would do an awesome job. I think they do just about everything there. If I'm correct there are 2 seperate locations.

I can't believe I almost forgot.. I have been recommended multiple times by automotive shops to go to Clarks Wheel Alignment in Kirkland. My buddy says most of the race cars they do fabrication work for go there. Food for thought.

Tight n tidy racing is popular among the autox crowd.
