Can anybody local balance a tire properly?? (NorCal)

Been having serious issues trying to get America's Tire Co to balance 19's properly on two separate vehicles, two separate ATC locations.

Does Auto innovations in Milpitas know what they're doing? Anybody know of a shop in the south bay preferably that can properly mount and balance our 19's?? Thanks.

ok apparently it was just America's Tire Co in 2 separate locations that don't know how to balance 19s properly

i took it to costco and they balanced them out, said they had a lot of unnecessary weight and in the wrong places, one was out by 1.25 ounces... now the 7er rides like glass like it should and the M should be the same way too

Auto Innovations does know what they are doing. But yeah, as you found out, some of the monkeys at America's Tire don't. They are hit and miss.

I use M&M Autowerkes in Campbell because they have a road force balancer. They did a good job for my 18's. They are also careful not to damage the rims. Balancing the 2 fronts should be about $50 or even less, I don't remember exactly.
