Place to get tires mounted in Orlando?

Does anyone know of a place in Orlando that will mount a set of tires for a good price? I bought a new set due to a blowout and I need to get off this donut asap

If you don't want to have the rims damaged I'd call up Racing Zone. They are about average as far as pricing goes but they only have 'plastic' tire mounting tools. Most places use cheaper stuff and it's usually steel which can scratch your rims.

...discount tire on 436 at colonial is good, but you have to talk to the service manager. His name escapes me right now, but he's the only one there with a blonde buzz cut. Remount and balance is $12 a wheel.

Not sure how much they would charge. Talk to Mike or Emanuel. Make sure they use the rubber attachment so they don't scratch your wheels.

I just had some new rubber mounted on my volks. I recommend Racing Zone, they are very careful and know how much your rims cost.

I ended up going with Discount Tire with it being so close, even though there a little high in price they didnt break my TPS sensors or scratch them up.
