Good Tire Shop in SoCal?

Just looking to get new tires installed and balanced. Hopefully PS4Ss.

Any reason to go somewhere else besides America's Tire? Will America's Tire install one size up? 255/275?

Thanks!

714 tires if you are going for a special fitment, but what you listed is completely fine to do at just about any tire shop.

714 is also a fantastic alignment shop if you need a rack that is low-car friendly or want a specific setup for street, track, drift, autocross, etc.

Ditto. They mounted my tires on my TE37s

Maybe I’ve just had good luck, but I never had an issue with discount tire. Even when I asked them to do some fairly ridiculous stuff they did it with gusto.

I go to discount tire also. They price match without hassling you. I watch them drive my car in the garage. Then I strike up a convo with the tech. They are always keen to talk about the car anyway. I ask them if I should go touchless and they usually say something like "don't worry I'll be extra careful." Mission accomplished.
