Funny, I've had multiple problems getting tires balanced correctly at the America's Tire nearest to me. I even had to contact their headquarters (the management team there was very helpful and supportive). They finally got it right on the 3rd try when the manager stood there and watched the tech do the work.

Generally, I am not too selective when it comes to tire installation because there is nothing unique about installing tires for a Boxster as compared to any other car.
