Socal guys: Where to Buy?

I'm driving out to San Diego in a couple weeks and while I'm there I would like to try on some helmets for the track. What shops are out there with inventory in the showroom? There is no such thing here in Phx.

Thanks in advance...

Online Amazon, you just need to get DOT SNELL approve helmets I believe.

Sorry, this is not for motorcyle helmets. I'm looking at the Arai GP-6S, the Sparco WTX-7 and the HJC HX-10. No one here has them in stock to try on (And I can't try them on at amazon either )

Call Sube Sports in Huntington Beach. It's a ways north of SD though. Last time I was there I recall seats, wheels and other things on their showroom floor but I don't remember looking for helmets. They should have some for you to try.

This.

Sube Sports is pretty well known for their helmet selection. Try there!

Bump. Spoken with Werks 2 in Burbank and Sube, looks like I'm going to LA instead. Any other shops I should check out?
