They have to be the most helpful and cool staff ive ever met at a tire shop.
They helped me adjust my coils on there lift cause my jack at home sucks.
They align it, did my tranny fluid, got 2 new Dunlop Direzzas mounted and balance and all for a good price.So if your in the area hit em up and im sure they can help you out.Sliders562 dwells there often and its home of "Touke".Theres even this guy there that looks like 50cent but his phillipino

Awesome place, people, and prices!!! I recommend to all even if it means traveling out there.Also when your down there let em know that your down with "Touke" and k's_silvia2.0 and they will show you mad love

I'll be going there to get my alignment done since I wouldn't trust anybody else with my super low car...lol

*karl wasabi* · 03-09-2009, 02:34 AM

Got my alignment done there. They will do custom alignments if you want, and they will work on lowered cars. My car never drove so straight.

charlie321 · 03-09-2009, 03:54 AM

Great place, Ernie always goes out of his way for his customers to find solutions. Very reliable, they work wonders with alignments.

This is for the one in Long Beach.

90 DGRZ · 04-24-2009, 02:18 PM

I trailer my car an hour+ to have them service and align it because they adhere to my needs and have great customer service. Great knowledge and experience. Big ups to both DTC performance locations in santa ana and LBC.

adrians_s13 · 04-24-2009, 02:47 PM

I have nothing but nice things to say about DTC performance....

I bought a set of tires from them and got an alignment all in the same day.... both of which costed less than any other competitors I've researched.

These guys are super helpful... and guess what, they don't scratch their heads and ask dumb questions about your car. Why? Because they all are involved heavily with 240s and drifting... which is great! I like the feeling of seeing eye to eye with the people I do business with.

*duffman1278* · 04-24-2009, 04:26 PM

This place is awsome! Ernie is a really cool person and the staff was really nice.

Their legit! TOO legit...too legit to quit

240love · 04-24-2009, 05:02 PM

DTC is awsome...

i drive down from oxnard to long beach just for the great service

Sileighty_DRFT89 · 04-24-2009, 06:06 PM

DTC in the LBC are great people. always show me mad love. Ernie let me use his lift to make sure the wheels I purchased from him would fit. another time we even got my car stuck on his lift haha. he was great in helping me unstick it and when I had a wheel that was scraping on my strut he provided me with some slip on spacers for free. idk any other shop that would do that, or mount my stretched tires for that matter. so if you have a custom application, that everyone else won't do cause its "unsafe". or just need tires in general. DTC is the place to go. much love guys

*memo92* · 04-24-2009, 06:10 PM

Hi, I would like to complement DTC Long Beach store on its service and every third Sunday car meets.

I bought a Greddy Type-S coil-over suspension and I am very satisfied with it.
They are one of the few stores that goes out of their way to help car tuners with lowered suspensions to get their cars aligned.
The sales people are very knowledgeable in helping the customer get the tires that they need and in addition to helping them find the right tire for their budgets.

The BBQs are a great way to build a loyal car-tuner community around the store and it is also a great way for different car owners to meet and become friends.

Thanks Ernie, Cris, L.J., and the rest of the techs.

Memo

P.S. Ernie, thanks for saving me from that other tire competitor's wrath.
The LBDTC staff is nice and humble compared to other tire stores/distributors sales people.

*DataXUnknown* · 04-24-2009, 06:22 PM

Excellent service and awesome people! I <3 DTC

*joshchewuhh* · 04-24-2009, 08:18 PM

DTC FTW!

i always reference this tire shop if anyone needs some tires or alignments

Blackparade · 04-24-2009, 08:55 PM

DTC has helped me out a lot. So in return i give them my business and respect. They are deeply rooted within the drift community and are always going out of their way to adhere to peoples needs!
The BBQ's are an awesome way to meet others within the community. Not only does it give us a chance to network, it gives them a chance to tell us about future and ongoing specials the shop has.
Thanks DTC
Mark Fernandez

blasting_speed · 04-24-2009, 11:21 PM

Oh man. DTC is fucking awesome. They're a one stop shop for my car. Ernie and the boys are great and awesome people to work with. I love it.

DTC fo' life son.

*mehsilvia* · 04-25-2009, 12:57 AM

Wanted to say thanks for DTC Performance and to Ernie. Their support of our forum members and dedication to motorsports is why i drove the 2hrs down there to get to my tires & mounting.

JKim0901 · 04-25-2009, 02:44 AM

GREAT SERVICE, GREAT BUSINESS, & GREAT FOOD when they have the bbq on sundays (=

nieko · 04-25-2009, 02:08 PM
