Does anyone know of a good (and relatively inexpensive) place to mount tires? I was going to go to Fosters, but they closed down recently =\.

 

Omni wheel and alignment in next to the Kirkland infiniti did mine, and truline or group 2 motorsports are also recommend, expect ~$25 each

 

i went to dunlop tires center or something in 4th AVE S. near safeco field.
ttl 4 tires with balancing $70.

 

This is where I wouldn't cheap out to save a few bucks, get a well known shop to do it since your wheels are expensive. Go to tirerack and see their recommended installers

 

How about Discount Tire Co.
If i were you i would open a yellow page and start calling ^^

 

I personally wouldn't let them touch my rims, heard to many bad stories about them in general. Go to some of the smaller specialty shops. Truline is recommended by the local porsche boards, and the ferrari & maserati dealership, Group 2 preps alot of the BMW club cars as well as alfa romeo and and miatas. They are the top 2 rated installers in the seattle area according to tirerack for a reason.

 

I've had Discount do quite a bit of work for me. They've fixed flats, I've bought tires, wheels, and had tires mounted/dismounted many times. Maybe I was lucky, but I found the cool guys that worked there, and stood next to them in the bay while they worked on my car. Yes, I was that guy...

Where'd you end up getting them done? Oh, and more pics!

 

Me too, stood in the bay inspecting their every move, they did an excellent job mounting the tires on my Z.

 

Just stay away from Les Schwab. Those guys swung my other rims onto the machine, and missed, and put a gouge on my rims. (Good thing I saw them do it, becuase they didn't say a damn thing about it).

I also saw their techs playing catch with the sockets, by throwing them over the tops of the cars.

 

I ended up getting it done at Car Nutz. They're in the same complex Park Place Motors. A friend of mine from World One knew someone who worked there. It was $100 for mounting and balancing (and demounting cuz they forgot about the TPMS, then remounting and rebalancing ).

My car is filthy right now cuz of all the snow and the rims look dull brown rather than gloss black

 

Haha! I can't resist guys, sorry. . .
Cheap place to mount tires? I think on the wheels would be a good place.

 

+1


and +1 on the dull brown rather than gloss black rims haha
