Default Recommendation for tire shops

I'm looking for new tires. Suggestion for tires and tire shops are appreciated. Wheel specs: 19x8.5 +24 19x9 +24

I was looking @ tire sizes 225/35 & 235/35

Almost forgot, I'll need an alignment done after. Where do you guys get it done at and how much?

Many people have been going to Tire Outlet on Alum Rock in San Jose for alignments. The only other places that most members suggest is Custom Alignment in Mountain View or another shop in Hayward.

It's not thatwe don't have any advice for you, but since you asked for SF/SAC area, it limited most of us from responding to you.

To be honest the "active" SF/SAC members in NorCal are relatively low, so you might want to pm your local homies for advice.

Get the tires from Sleek Motoring in Mountain View . Drive right around the corner and have the alignment done at Custom Alignment.

I'm an alignment tech @ a Les Schwab in the Sacramento area.
If you're up for the drive, I can take care of you.

i go to pacific tire outlet in milpitas. also if you need an alignment, auto innovations in milpitas is the place to go. they have a custom ramp for lowered cars and have done all my cars. they can set u up for street or track and have competitive pricing.

if they can do my slammed 350z they can pretty do any car.

Thanks for the references everyone. I ended up meeting up with David in Roseville and he took care of me. David can do lowered cars (no ramp needed) Great guy and would recommend to other members in the area.
