New development

Today I was referred to "Radial tire service", said to be one of the top front end shops in the area. They're located at 2500 cottage ave , sacramento ca. I must say, an impressively equipped establishment..
I was told by them that my tires are out of round and out of balance. The solution, they say, is a new set of Michelin defenders.
Ok. But Ive had two other shops(America discount tires and Les Schwab), within a very short time, tell me that the tires(Falken Sinceras) are ok.
So, it appears tire service is not based on any standards. Its art, not science. Or something else. A worrying development.
Beyond this, Im speechless.
