It's time for 4 new tires and I'm looking for a place that can do the tire swap and alignment without screwing up the wheels or suspension - SUGGESTIONS??

P.S. - I'm in the Rockville area and willing to travel to Northern VA area if necessary.

Bought my tires from Radial Tire in Silver Spring. They had the equipment to handle the wide tires. I do not remember if they had an alignment rack.
Also, Tony's Corvette Shop in Gaithersburg does all my mechanical work. Make sure Andrew does the work.
The do have an alignment rack and Jose is excellent on it. They have a dyno and 2 large shops. Tell Tony that Jim sent you.

Jim S.,

It's Howard from Whetstone, we've met before (at Bruster's Ice Cream on 355). I don't know why I didn't think of Tony (as you know, Andrew has done the restoration on my '66). I'll give him a ring. Thanks!

Howard

Tony's Corvette Shop in G'burg does work for Viper as well? Mind if i ask as to how long you've taken your car to Tony's Corvette? Also, I remember calling them to have alignment done and they said no, that they only work on Vettes. It would be great if they also work on Vipers as well, since i'm not too comfortable with my local Dodge dealership in town.

Like you, i'm going to need some tires on my car as well and i'm thinking of taking my car to Radial Tire in Silver Spring. Have read a lot of positive reviews from all sort of car enthutiasts about this place.

I used to take my Vets to Tony's, its a great shop but I don't know if they do Vipers.

I have my Viper aligned at TPC Racing in Jessup, MD. Its a great Porsche shop and they got the Viper handling much better. The owner Mike is a racer and really knows his stuff. Tell him vincy sent you.
