This is first time I haven’t had a friend working somewhere that mounts tires. I never realized places charged so much for mounting and balancing.

My problem is I have 18" - 40 series tires going on. I pretty much just drove around and got prices today.

Custom Werks- $25 a wheel

Reid’s - $30 a wheel

Goodyear- $40 a wheel

Anybody have any places they use that won’t scratch my rims and fuck up the balance???

I’ll probably just go to Custom Werks as Don says they have one of the best tire machines in the area, but I felt I should share with people who may be facing the same ordeal soon.

I know Swervemotorsports mounts and balances wheels for a pretty good price. I think Bladez got his wheels mounted there so you can PM him and get his opinion.

25 a wheel isnt bad if they have a nice machine and you didnt buy your tires or wheels there. Mounting low profile tires can be a serious PITA on some rims.

Is this the same price for a 18" wheel with lowpro tires?  
If it is where are they located at?
