Haddad Motorsports! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hey guys. I went to Haddad Motorsports today to diagnose the steering wheel vibration. Mike and his crew were able to detect what was causing the vibration. The tires were put on a Road Force Balancing machine and there were major deviations with 2 tires. Way out of acceptable specs. Mike was able to balance them with this new information.

I am really happy how well it turned out! 95% of the vibration is gone, and considering how "off" the tires were, that is pretty awesome. The only real 100% fix is to get new tires.

Overall, I am more that pleased with Haddad Motorsports. I have been hoping for a long time to find a performace garage near me that knows what they are doing, and Haddad definitely qualifies. I will be taking my camaro there for anything else I do in the future.

Anyone else in the LA area looking for a good shop with good guys owes it to themselves to check out Haddad Motorsports. Very nice and easy to work with. Mike made sure to understand what I wanted out of my car, he wasn't trying to force any other opinions but did lend his experience to helping me realize exactly what I wanted and how I could get there. This was great, I have been to places where the guys only tell you what they think is correct from their perspective.

MIke was extremely modest about his knowledge with the Camaro platform. I didn't know this until I came in, but his shop had a lot of input on MANY Pedders products in their testing and development. Very comforting to know that the shop you are taking your Camaro to is probably one of the most qualified in the Country.

I know this is a long post, but Mike deserves a lot more credit than I can give. His knowledge and expertise is evident when you are talking to him.
