Recommend Tire/Alignment Shop in Baltimore/Maryland Area

Can anyone recommend a Tire/Alignment shop in the Baltimore area? I've had a really difficult time finding a good shop in recent years.

Someone who knows what they are doing, is willing to align to my specifications and is not 'new to this stuff'..

Also Someone that is good with the mount and balance, not messing up wheels and achieving good balancing..

Tire Racks 'preferred shops' are a bunch of chains for the most part. I know its not rocked science, but it seems like it given how hard it is to find someone to trust to do it right..

Added bonus is a shop that lets me work with the technician directly, and even watch/be part of the process..

Hi Scott, did you try S2 Dynamics in Rockville as I previously suggested? I got my e53 done there in January and they followed my instructions to the letter. They called me two hours after I dropped the car. (Since I had just overhauled the complete suspension it was ofcourse quite simple as all bolts were easily loosened and tightened but still)

I had forgotten to tell them to check that the steering wheel needed to be dead ahead (it had a slight offset previously) and reminded them of the zero degree toe request. They sounded a bit surprised that I called them back about that but said no problem. It came back perfectly aligned and the car drives great, very surefooted.

I had to mess about with my e70 suspension while it was in Europe and so I may also bring them the e70 again when it finally makes it back to the US.
