First post - hoping you can help me! Tried doing a search but didn’t find anything.
I am coming across the border very shortly from Toronto Canada in order to install fresh rubber on my E39 M5 (much cheaper to do it this way!).
Can anyone recommend a trusted tire installer/balancer in the NY/Buffalo area (possibly near Niagara Falls)? Preferably someone with a Road Force Balancer and who is good with mounting low profile tires on large wheels without damage.
Lot’s of nice cars here on the forum so I am hoping someone can throw me a name/vendor that they can recommend. FYI I am mounting:
F: 245/40/ZR18 R: 275/35/ZR18
Either Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Starspec or Bridgestone RE11’s.
Swerve Motorsports isn’t in Niagara Falls and they don’t have a roadforce balancer but they do a great job mounting/balancing and you can trust them with your rims.
I’m not sure I buy into the hype over road force balancing. I’ve been having tired mounted/balanced for 19 years now and never had a problem with normal balancing as long as the person doing it had a decent machine and gave a damn about their job.
Little closer to Niagara Falls is Swiderski Motorcar, located in Tonawanda just off the Niagara river they can do up to 24" wheels, have hunter machines, nylon heads on the mounting equipment so no scratches.
I have always used swerve…like others said not really close to NF but do great job…Swiderski is a little closer but I have no previous experience with them not to say they cant help u
