Sent you a PM. You guys are right in my backyard, I’ve been to the shop plenty of times. Can I just drop 2 wheels/tires off whenever to be mounted and balanced? I can dispose of the old ones.

BTW I took some liberties setting up this vendor section… Andy & his brother didn’t have set name for their operation so I made one up 🙂

> yeah swerve is now closed to the public. My shop is one in the same with John Donovan, he’s my partner along with my brother. I can really do almost any type of work needed, I just prefer general repair or ground up motor builds with a decent budget in mind. The two major things I don’t do yet is inspections and alignments (hopefully soon to come). what I usually do is go over people’s cars preinspection and take care of anything that needs doing so they don’t get raped by the inspection place. for example, an outer tire rod is not 90 plus and hour labor install, plus alignment. it’s like 40 bucks out the door with my brother and I. we are just very honest and hard working and probably don’t charge enough but it’s something we enjoy outside of our regular jobs. I’m definitely looking forward to spring time because I’m sure a ton of you are going to come for tires. that machine is a beast and such a pleasure to work with

Saw your equipment last night and met ya for the first time 👏 I will be doing my wheel/tire biz with you for sure! :tup:

lol @ memory lane. My high 13 second car pwning the streets.

Thanks for all the praise guys. I should be making a more formal intro thread in the near future explaining everything in much more detail. I was going to call this vendor section Walker Bros. Tire and Repair, but I’m kinda hooked on the hilarity of the banner Josh made and I think it’s got to stay. 🙂
