  • Philadelphia tire mounting/balancing?!

    Ok, so I got my dunlop winter sport m3 snow tires for an awesome deal through tirerack, and Im ready to have them mounted on the wheels - but EVERY GOSH DARN PLACE around here charged $18+ for tire mounting/balancing. Even Pepboys is $20/wheel.

    Do any of you have suggestions for where I can get them mounted cheaply? Where Im from a set of simple 16" wheels and tires can be mounted for $10/ea+ tax. Kristen?

    most places will charge that much when you don't buy the tires from them

            Wow, I guess Ill just do the $20/tire thing. And I would have bought my tires through someone here, I tried, (like always) but nobody would order me the Dunlop Winter Sport M3s for under $150/tire - not to mention that they all still wanted $20/tire or better on top of that to mount/balance.

                  Hey thanks for the phone call!
                  I actually found a place next door practically that said they'd do it for $40, so I think I'll do that - but thanks so much for the help [img]smile.gif[/img]
