I understand that Southwest Brake and Alignment in San Antonio does tire
truing. Their phone number is 210 225-5577. They are located on IH35 at
3930 N IH35. If you are eastbound on I-10 take the I-35 north exit (just
like you were going to Dallas) and get off on the frontage road at the
Splashtown (a water park) exit. They will be a mile or so further on the
frontage road. Exits in that area are tricky so you are better off on the
frontage road than going by the place and having to turn around and go back.
Call me if you stop in San Antonio. My cell phone number is 210 379-3690.
I ALWAYS have it on and it is either on my belt or laying on the night stand
with the charger plugged in. I work odd hours so don't figure it is too
late to call as I may be up all night, depending on what is going on.
