Wheel Balancing in Fairfield County?

Need to get a wheel rebalanced... prefer a shop with a Road Force and within 15-20 min of Stamford..

Ideally a shop that is open relatively late!

Car has been unstable at higher speeds.. not pulling to either side, just starts to get rough with some vibration when I exceed 75ish mph and becomes incrementally worse the faster I go.

i've been using Costco, they are dirt cheap and I never had a problem.
I would recommend you call them and ask them what they use and let us know as well.

If you were planning on removing the tires of the rims than I would not use them, but for balancing they should be fine.
thanks

Not removing the tires.. Actually just had four BNIB wheels and tires mounted balanced etc.. and found on a lil speed run that one wasn't balanced properly..

I spoke to the fine people of Costco recently and because I'm not a member I don't believe they can help me out.. I'll ask if they can simply balance a wheel though.. thanks for the input.
