Years ago I found a business in Pasadena that shaved tires but wound up not having the tires shaved and never used them. I can't recall who that was but call Pasadena tires stores. They may know who it is.

I worked on this two years ago, and was amazed that I couldn't find a shop in Los Angeles to do it. I finally found a guy who had just picked up a shaving machine, used, who agreed to have me be his guinea pig. It didn't work out so well.
If you find someone, post it here.

Why shave the tire? Is it not good for new tires to go out straight on the track? I know quite many companies that organizes more up market events (such as driving courses at Spa, the Ring etc..) supply a tire service where they change tires and check angles for a discounted price (course participants).
