Monro at Bj’s wholesale club. They clamp in and out, talk to Stallmer. He should be able to get them done for you. I would do them, but I don’t work there anymore.

I asked the BJ’s in saratoga… they said they can do it for $35 a tire… Im not trying to pay $140 to get 4 tires mounted. Thats a bit insane

its reverse mount thats why.

If you want to stay in Saratoga sears used to do an awesome job for me. Just make sure you have the wheels off the car. They don’t like to touch nicer cars.

Also there is a place by my work who does a really good job. Last time the charged me $18 to mount an 235/40 on an 18x7.5.

IF you are looking to do it in two weeks are so im going to be doing mine then and we can load up all our wheels and tires in my suby wagon of death and get that shit all done at once

you have to put the rin on the machine upside down and the machine clamps out instead of in on the rim.

\*i might have the clamping part backwards

I would guess that this is just done to reduce the chance of damage to nice wheels?

That’s why you talk to stallmer. He works at the one in Albany. I use to mount and balance tires for $10 for people I knew. Money in my pocket was always better then money to the company :ninja
