Default tires mounted. wheel fixed.

I have two questions to my fellow S2ki'rs... where is the cheapest place to get two tires mounted... the wheels will not be on the car, i am just taking in rims and tires... i know Wheel Image is a sponsor, but from what i read they are a little pricey... anyone know of anywhre else that will take care of me... for a decent price...


Also i have a BBS wheel thats needs a little repair and i am looking for the best palce to take it... i heard that the hubcap and wheelstore is a little shady and i would like to avoid them.. any other local shops willing to do this work... or better yet i guess this question would be for 8ball, will your buddy at wheel image know someone who could possible take care of it?

Thanks in advance.. i need to get my s2k back on the road, and sell those BBS wheels so i can buy S2k parts...

Give Paul a call. I'm sure he has contacts that do this type of work and would be willing to refer someone to you.

Paul will give us the best price that he can. In some cases he may be a bit more expensive, however, I would trust him with my car moreso than I would anyone else.

There is a lot of options. I too think Wheel Image is priced high however I felt very good about them working on the car. You also have Plaza, Firestone, Western Tire, etc. Just look through the phone book or www.yellowpages.com

I had the Express Service at Huey's Honda mount my tires on my 17" Work Emotion Wheels and they did a great job. Price was like $15 a wheel/tire (cheap). My gf had her tires mounted on her SSR Comps by them and had no issues either.

I have a contact who does the work at Huey's if you want to make an appointment... shoot me a PM if you need/want it.

$15 is a good price. FWIW, Greg's charges $1 per inch.

We got the Fit tires mounted (16" rims) @ Greg's for ~$20/wheel all-in - they did a good job
