Default Where to Have Beadlocks Balanced in So Cal?

So I've got 5 Raceline beadlock wheels sitting in my garage (15"), and I'm about to order some MTR/K's to throw on them. I want to do the mounting part myself, but as far as balancing, I'd rather pay a good shop to do it rather than try my luck with Dynabeads. Does anyone know a good shop that has a lot of experience balancing offroad tires on beadlock wheels anywhere in SoCal? I'll drive pretty far if I know the job will be done right, but closer to LA is always better.

Thanks guys!

Roger Daniel's Alignment and Brake in Santee, but that is pretty far. EVO or Rebel would be a lot closer.

Yep, they're steel in black with aluminum rings. I bought them from a guy who had a D44 Jk and is doing an axle swap. Test fitted them too. I'm just hoping there are no issues with the balance weight placement trying to get a shop to balance them.
