Might be a bit of a drive for you, but I used Phoenix Competition in Palm, PA....just a bit south of Allentown....215-679-2232. They did an excellent 4-wheel alignment on my '05/Z51. Spent some time discussing driving styles, whether I intended to track the car, etc. Also added weights in the passenger compartment to pre-load the suspension which I thought was a neat touch.

If you have a older vette try Sardo's in Ansonia.

Ph. Comp is by far the best shop in the NE, otherwise village tire in Avon will get the job done

Thanks, Guys! I may try Zeller Tire in Torrington. They do my tire/wheel balance work and seem to be very conscientious and are willing to work with me (and the book). Unless someone has had a less than good experience with them??? I'll report back if they do the work...Maybe I should mention the forum??? Still searchin'....

Default nope

I just returned from Zeller tire in Torringtron, where they balanced my wheels/tires. We couldn't get the vette on the alignment lift so that fell thru'.....Good bunch of guys, there, they take care with your ride, and are very thorough. Checking on the Chev dealer on 202 east; they have a flush to the floor unit. (Working my way over to Avon, Steve..)
