Where would everyone recommend I get tires mounted/balanced etc? I'm sure most places are around the same price, but perhaps some preferred tire shops?

Re: Best / Cheapest
$10/tire, Good Luck! Maybe if you bought the tires there. I just had mine done, cheapest I could find was $20/tire, most places were $30-$40.Originally posted by hopya View PostJeff

Re: Best / Cheapest
Most tires are becoming more and more complex.(run flats and so on)
I use Tire bob for the 18" and above,i deal with mechanical and he deals with rubber.
Machinery is not cheap.
So if anybody wants any recommendations let me know..i know the industry and the people.I Can't justify spending 100 grand every 2 yearS for updates.
And the small shops will become the Borg Collective and we will take on the dealers,
Faster service better prices and you deal with the owners.
Franchises do not apply.Last edited by VWSM; 05-05-2009, 06:05 AM.Comment
