He's very friendly and will help as much as possible.

I am using that on my IS350.
I'm wondering about my tires. Yesterday was the first time I drove the GS with 4 deep. Since the car is lowered, the extra weight of 4 people had the car even lower. It rode terrible. The tires were loud. There was some vibration, too. This is the first time I tried Dunlops. I heard they were noisy and hard. But these Sport Maxx had good write-ups. Weren't cheap either at 260 a piece for 19's. I'm wondering if the nitro is part of the problem.
Had an alignment but they still seem to ride funny. I should have stuck with what I like, Yoko's or Michelin.

I had my alignment done on Saturday at Joseph's shop. It was a great experience overall. He's a pretty cool/nice guy and is willing to help out where ever he can. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. The alignment turned out great so far and they made sure to be especially careful w/ my car. I have a moderate drop (1.5 to 2 finger gap) on Tein CS v2 and 18" wheels. We'll see how this alignment goes, but from what I can tell, I'll be taking my family's cars here from now on.

Sorry all - I am bumping this thread back up... to give props to Joeseph and his tire outlet crew.

I just had tire service done at his place and it was quick in and out!

Expect more future services from me! I highly recommend his shop to anyone looking for tire service. A+++++++++++++

Sorry but I have to bump this old thread due to my excellent experience at Tire Outlet.

I had an alignment done on my lowered IS300 today and everything turned out great. Customer service and satisfaction there is #1. Joseph is a friendly guy, cool to talk to, and he even hooked me up with a gatorade. The techs who did my alignment handled my car carefully. No worries at all. They also have a 90 day warranty for the alignment. I will come back again in the future!
