Default Reputable tire shop in SE Pennsylvania

Anyone know of a good tire shop in Southeastern PA that would mount/balance tires/wheels on my C6? I want to make sure they're careful on the wheels and thoroughly balance them.

I live in Bensalem, about 10 minutes north of Philadelphia.

TIA

Very Highly Recommended - Performance Automotive Inc, Malvern PA 19335

I was referred to this shop by the NE Service guru for the manufacturer of tire mounting equipment. Called, spoke at length with them, made an appt and had custom made 19x10 and 20x12 wheels mounted with difficult run flat tires. Speed balanced, nitrogen filled and out the door in a couple hours. "NO TOUCH" tire mounting machine left zero marks. They also have the latest and alignment machine - sits flush with the floor so any ultra low clearance car car drive onto it a and be aligned. They can align to any application and can do the Corvette owners preferred Pfadt Racing specs for street or other applications.

Peter Rutkowski and Paul McDonald are the owners. 610-695-9545 www.pfmauto.com

The shop handle lots of Track Cars and are Porsche experts.

Ditto on Performance Auto. They did my 06 last year. They did wheels, tires, calipers, rotors, and some custom fitting. I have never had such a great experience with a vendor regarding my Corvette.

The documented the mileage in and out, washed the car, and kept me informed on the process daily. Mine was there for a couple of days due to the amount of work I had done.

Highly recommend them.
