Size usually is not a concern in tire mounting price. Unless you are stretching them cause thats a MFer and the shop will usually tell ya they cant and wont do it.

+1, WM Supercenter in Halfmoon will do the dismount only for like $20 for a whole set, or even less…

If you bring in rollers, make sure you tell them you don’t need balancing. Sometimes they try to tack on balancing and that basically doubles the cost, negating the deal. Say it up front, and then make sure to remind the cashier.

If they’re nicer wheels though, you may want to go another route as I know the WM people rush and don’t really pay attention sometimes. Basically, you get what you pay for.

I only bring steelies / OEM wheels there.

Most places dont use their equipment properly. I half assed the steelies but people are generally unhappy when you scratch the coating off their alloys…

Terrible idea, and you need a tire iron as well, the wheel will not simply “pull out”

Tractor trailer tires? Only bad asses do it by hand! lol CRD had to dismount some old ATV tires, and the bead was so strong on the little wheel he parked his F150 on the tire and it wouldnt pop off! win some and loose some i guess.

yep 24.5 steel wheels, they come apart pretty easy once you know the tricks. the bigger the hammer the easier they break loose. mounting is even easier!
