Anyone know of a really good wheel balance shop that can actually balance it and get the shakes out instead of spinning it once and sending it?

Been through a couple places and no one can seen to balance it right. Just got new motor mounts and threw new front wheels and tires on there. I know its the balance because when they attempt the 1 shot balance, the vibration pattern changes but its always at 60-65 mph where it happens.

Auto Innovations in Milpitas. Give them a shot. I’ve taken my cars to them for alignment, wheel balancing, tire install for years. Always been happy with their service.

I think those generic tire places can't even get the wheel bolts straight with the wheel. There are special bolts to line up the holes. When I saw the tire tech trying to line up the holes with his knee and one bolt I cringed. They tried balancing the wheels twice. The second time it was better but not good enough. I took my car to BMW for the final warranty inspection. They had to remove the wheels. They remounted them without balancing. Guess what, no more vibration.

Had a very bad experience here.... the foreman pawned the job off to some seeming newb highschool kids, charged me $200 plus, vibration was still there and he refused to reinspect or do anything. Told me he would have to charge me $240 an hour to swap out the hub rings while they were in there and it would take 2-3 hours to do the hub rings. Changed my own hub rings in under 30 seconds. Never again....
