Tires: Wheel Enhancement in Culver City. They specialize in p-car wheels/tires along with other high-end cars. Prices are competitive, service is excellent.
Roads: Malibu Canyon and Angeles Crest. PCH for cruising. SoCal has amazing driving roads.
Performance Shops: There are tons. GMG has a great rep in OC. There are many others, many are sponsors of this forum.
Enthusiasts: Cars and Coffee in Irvine every Saturday. Supercar Sunday in Woodland Hills every Sunday.

Awesome. Great. Thanks. Sunset blvd from west Hollywood towards the water is sick. Palos verdes, the road to lake Elsinore, amazing. I'm having so much fun. I wish I could upload pics. It won't let me yet.

Angeles Crest is a blast. Try and hit it on a weekday if you can. Weekends are a bust unless you get up real early...too many bicyclists to contend with, also it's heavily patrolled on weekends, so watch out. Upper Big Tuhunga is off the crest and is fun too, also not as crowded.
PCH is scenic, but it doesn't get real twisty until past Cambria, which is almost halfway to Santa Cruz.

PCH in socal is more of a "cruise" road, especially from belmont shore south to san clemente or north from santa monica to camarillo. Enjoy the views.
Other favorites:
Ortega (weekends). Please watch out for the MC's tho!
A few of the roads in the saddleback area of OC
North county san diego - really enjoy the back roads to julian, 78, 79, the smaller roads, S1, S2, Palomar Mtn road
Just about all the back-roads in Santa Ynez Valley (foxes canyon, etc). Bonus are the wineries along the way. I let the wife taste. And, they are very lightly travelled.

Head to PCH and then to Topanga. Take Old Topanga to Mulholland and up to Kanan Dune. Take Kanan right to get to the 101 or left to get back to PCH. Nothing better at 6am.
