Recommendations for place to mount tires in the East Bay - preferably near Dublin?
Just picked up a 2005 allroad and am looking for recommendations for a good, trusted place that knows Audis and can mount winter tires without scratching the wheels, caps, etc. I'm thinking Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3s from TireRack in case anyone is wondering.
Thanks for the info.

I would recommend America's, but...
they recently put one of my PS2s on backwards. :-(
IIRC, TireRack lists Roger Kraus Racing in Castro Valley as preferred in our area (SR/Dub), if that helps.
They do a great job at alignments

I'll strongly 2nd RKR, though I had my Dunlops put on at Rynck in Pleasanton...
After all the bad experience I've had with ALL the local Big-O's, I just hauled in "loose wheels". These guys have done a couple jobs; a/c service, tires etc, and they seem to be the exception to the knuckleheads and dirtbags at other local shops.

lessee, off top of head:
Dublin, Made appt, waited 2hrs, was told they couldn't do job today, sent home. (alignment)
Came back, did alignment, heard clunking, found loose upper A arm bolts, complained, was told they didn't have time to fix until next week.
They messed up another appt too for my wife's car, don't remember details.
Pleasanton, I had them replace tires on my S4. First I stopped the monkey from trying to PRY OFF the BBS cap (it threads off), then they broke the locknut key using the rattle gun, then LEFT THE KEY IN THE WHEELCAP. I discovered this on Christmas Eve (last year) as I started my downpipe install.
Comparatively, I got an alignment on an old van there they managed not to mess up, just took 2.5hrs. I also had new tires put on a truck there once. That's my good experiences.
F=CK BIG-O.
