Best place for wheel balancing?

Got new tires on yesterday (switched to Bridgestone RE970AS Pole Position from the Conti DW - AMAZING TIRE!!!) and the Firestone shop didn't balance very well, still get a wobble between 60-70mph.

Anyone recommend a good, hi speed balance shop in the Inner Portland area? I'll travel a bit if I need to, just want the best job possible.

Jason

Just call different tire stores to find a Hunter "Road Force" balancing machine. That will be your best bet ---
