Best/cheapest to get tires mounted and dismounted

[Jserman]

what's your opinion on best and cheapest place to go??

I heard hubcap annie is pretty cheap and doesn't give you crap about not buying tries from them..

I need 4 tires taken of my rims and then will be putting 4 new tires on here in a bit....

[JDMike]

I heard Wal-Mart did cheap dismounts......CHEW says to go to Goodyear aka Boise Tire.

[CarNueba]

crowbar + knife = dismount

lighter fluid + matches = mount





lol only kiddin

[SRinside]

thats how I do all my tires...

[turbo2cam]

hubcap annies has les schwab in meridian mount/dismount their tires. i had a rim fixed there and had to go pick it up from schwabs after they mounted the tire back on.

walmart is the cheapest, but they wont do any sort of performance/low profile tire. beyond that, its homie hookup time.

They may have a long time ago, but they actually have a tire machine in the shop behind their house. That is where they do all of the wheel repairs. I picked up my wheels/tires from there when they mounted them.

[turbo2cam]

i just had this done about a year ago....maybe it was my 20" rim with a 235/30/20 on it....but 100% without a doubt, they did NOT mount or dismount my tire. les schwab in meridian did.

I just called them.. they do mounting and balancing... 12/rims..

but she said it isn't a fast process.....like drop them off today pick up tomorrow kind of thing...

i just need my old tires removed right now and will prob go there to have my new tires put on....

[zenkiderek]

I took mine to Firestone and was happy with their service. 225/40's on 9.5" wheels. They called me to make sure I knew there would be stretch.

[bcool]

Fuck boise tire. Highschool auto programs do them for free.

[Jserman]

how much did Firestone charge??? and yea I don't cruise the high schools like you zone...

[Jserman]

well after some calling around... looks like most places charge bout 6/tire...

prob head down to Big O on fair view since I have heard nothing but good thing about them

[zenkiderek]

It was like $72 but i was happy to pay that. Some places (les schwab and others) quoted me $130+

[Jserman]

well hub cap annies said 12/rim to mount and balance so I will be taking my rims there when i get the new tires...

[zenkiderek]

i was going to do that as well but it was a friday and i wanted to do my 5 lug swap that weekend.

[bcool]

and yea I don't cruise the high schools like you zone...

Oh, I though you were talking about where to go to mount bitches.

[Jserman]

Oh, I though you were talking about where to go to mount bitches.


HAHAHAHA please like you have ever mounted a bitch a day in your life......

[bcool]

Thats right. It only mount decent respectable women.

[microsteve40]

I've had tires mounted/dismounted at places all around town, and Jessica at Les Schwab on Fairview is the best if you want your wheel taken care of. But, they are NOT cheap, and when I was talking to her a couple weeks ago, she said they just raised the prices again, to something like $1/inch for mount and $1/inch for dismount. Yikes!

[Jserman]

yea like that sweet cougar at CG's???????????

FUCK.... yea if I had baller wheels I would prob take them to jessica but I will try annies and see how that turns out...

[Jserman]

well after having my rims and tires for 3 days and me explaining to them that they would be stretched hub cap annie can't do them... :(

so looks like I will need to find a place that will do it....

[csweston]

Do it yourself, thats what i did with my snow tires :)

[revsx]

come buy the hatch and stuff and drop them off at kyle's and we'll get it done

[Jserman]

the rims have to be balanced yo....

[csweston]

did that myself too :)

[Jserman]

did that myself too :)

[csweston]

Possibly, How much of a stretch? ill need to know how much it needs to be stretched and ill let you know tomorrow

[Jserman]

215/45 on a 9in rim... not alot of strecth....

[csweston]

[Jserman]

[csweston]

[DICKARM]

Dude ANY tire shop will but a 215/45 on a 9

[Jserman]

well hub cap annie's wouldn't do it.... lame I know it's not a big stretch so it will get done... no worries...

[csweston]

Im 99.9% sure our tire machine can handle it just didnt want to say it did to find out that id doesn't.

[revsx]

well it may not stretch it christian see ryan and chase with kyle's beemer's tires. but i know magic trick from before the day of mounting machines

[DICKARM]

It's not even a stretch!

[csweston]

well it may not stretch it christian see ryan and chase with kyle's beemer's tires. but i know magic trick from before the day of mounting machines

Yeah, i heard about that today haha

[csweston]

How far is kyle stretching anyways?

[revsx]

225/40 on 10.5 i think

[csweston]

Thats a bit more stretch then the ones im doing so i should be fine.

[Jserman]

funny thing is i picked up my stuff from hub cap Annie and they said they went to schwab and they told them that that size tire should never be mounted on the rim..

when I was looking for a place to take them I called Schwab and they said they would do it no prob...LOL

[turbo2cam]

funny thing is i picked up my stuff from hub cap Annie and they said they went to schwab and they told them that that size tire should never be mounted on the rim..

see...i told you hub cap annies DOES NOT mount/dismount themselves. they have schwabs do it...thats why its a drop off today, pick up tommorow thing...cause they haul them over to schwabs in meridian lol

[Jserman]

see...i told you hub cap annies DOES NOT mount/dismount themselves. they have schwabs do it...thats why its a drop off today, pick up tommorow thing...cause they haul them over to schwabs in meridian lol

no they do them there selves they just didn't feel safe doing them so they went and asked them...

they even told me they where going to...

[spastik]

they even told me they where going to...

:lolwut:

[DICKARM]

Fuggin noobz

[turbo2cam]

no they do them there selves they just didn't feel safe doing them so they went and asked them...

they even told me they where going to...

well you are the 4th person i personally know that went to hub cap annies...aaaaaaaaand the 4th person to have hub cap annies take there wheels to les schwab. what they say, and what they do, are obviously 2 different things lol maybe they break down 86 chevy truck wheels and tires themselves, but so far anyone with an aftermarket wheel/tire has had schwabs do it for annies. did they give you a pudding cup for your troubles? lol

[Jserman]

Fuck I wish... I find it hard to believe they outsources there mounting... cause schwab charges 17+ a rim depending on size of rim... and annie's charges 12...

and if you didn't read they did JDMITR's. they told me they didn't feel comfortable putting my tires on my rims and was going to check with a tire place to see what they said...

and if there outsourcing to schwab and schwab said they would do it why didn't it get done???... and why would they refer me to bruneel to get it done when i picked them up???

well I am glad they didn't do them cause christian (csweston) hooked it up for me....

Tires are mounted and look awesome... now just waiting for my C/O's

[csweston]

Glad i could help. Definitely post some pics of the 240 when you get the C/O's and rims on.

[microsteve40]

Got my tires done today at Ultimate Tint and Wheel on Fairview. They are a little spendy, but Jason did a great job on my mild stretch (225 on 9, 245 on 10). They do have a cheetah and are willing to do more aggressive stretch though, so may be an option for some of you. I had a hard time finding places that would even do mine...

[RunninWild]

firestone on broadway.

205/40's on 9's

195/55's on 10's

They don't give a fuck.

[DICKARM]

the problem with most of you is....you ASK them to mount your tires. just tell them what you want and they'll do it.

[Nitrous2k]

or go to walmart, they try to mount and fail at setting the bead, but get tires on the wheels. they give you that much for free because they couldn't get it done. you go home with an air compressor, a strap some soap and some jumping (or starting fluid if you can) and get them mounted for free.

[Jserman]

^^^^ yea i WON'T be taking my rims to walmart....I am good...

[SRinside]

Firestone on broadway is ftw. No questions asked. May not be cheapest though.

[RunninWild]

It's around $60 for a mount and balance from what I can remember.

[zenkiderek]

Yeah, that's what I remember too.
