Default hey

hey all,
I'm new to the WRX world after purchasing my first last week She's a 2005 clubspec 8 evo. The dealers I got her from where quite dodgy (as most are) and I'm keen to take her in for a check up - does anyone know any good, reliable and trustworthy mechanics?
Also, something my partner noticed, the rims are weighted unevenly.. is this normal?
I'll post pics as soon as i figure out how.
Sim.

Hey bud,

Welcome and enjoy the forums, post pic's etc etc.

Should always get a mechanical inspection before purchasing but if you're looking for a mechanic check out Maximum Motor Sports ('MMS'), or All Star Garage ('ASG').

Regarding the wheels, its not unusual to have different weights on each rim as they don't come out exactly the same, if you're concerned just get them balanced.

Enjoy your new ride!
