Dealership will double charge you for this kind of work and others can do it as well or better.

I recommend calling a Discount Tire Company location near you and ask them if they have a "road force" balancing system made by Hunter (9700) or a better machine that will put some pressure on the tires while balancing. If they don't have it, ask which location does have it. You can also go to Hunter's website and find a shop with a machine that will do road force balancing for you.

I just had this done on my boxster and finally got rid of the wheel and rear end shakes I had since buying my tires last year. Tried "normal" spin balancing three times and it didn't get it right.
