Touchless tire installation near oakland

I need to replace tires on my f80 oem 18 wheels.
Anyone know of a good tire shop in Oakland or East Bay,
either with a touchless machine or use the right equipment?

I wouldn’t recommend avn, I went to them a total of two times. Every single time I experienced vibration and they’d even admit that the wheel balancing was off both instances. I initially thought it was my spacers too. The owners are chill though. I’d totally recommend agundis tire

That is very strange but at least they tried to get it fixed for you I hope. They put PS4 on my 19" wheels without any problem. The same for my buddy's brand new BBS RIA with PS4. I will have to check out Agundis Tire next time since they are closer for me.

I went to AVN. The staff and owner are very cool guys. The techs were super careful with my wheels. Also got a set of new tires for another car. In both cars, I did experience mild vibration between 75 to 85 mph. I'll be taking it back to them for a redo.

Quick update: even after multiple redos on multiple balancing machines, the wheels still vibrated. I was told machines are properly calibrated and other customers did not mention vibration issues. ended up taking it to a nearby wheelworks. no more vibrations - wheels balanced! unfortunately, they scratched the wheels.
