Default Tire / Wheel Specialist in MD
There was a highly recommended tire / wheel specialist in MD a lot of you have used, but its name is escaping me. I am looking for wheel / tire / offset assistance.

I recall the name being the county or town its in, like Piedmont Tire.

X2, I bought a set of wheels for the 996 that had "custom offsets" a while ago. He was able to recommend the perfect size all season tyres that fit the car perfectly! Only one of many examples of totally satisfied Dorki customers.

That wasn't the name of the shop I was thinking of, but I will give him a call. Thanks.

Many PCA-Potomac people rely on Paul. Fair price AND excellent tire advice for track and autocross use. Paul knows our sport very well. I was just there this morning!

I stand corrected. It was Radial Tire that was initially recommended. They sound like the horse to win.
