Default A safe place to be mounted.

Looking for any recommendations on a shop that could mount/balance new 18 wheels and tires. The most convenient location would
be some place in RI, but I would be willing to drive for a quality install.

Look for an "NTB" (National Tire and Battery). I've had good luck with those guys. Also, get an alignment.

I agree w/ Dana.

Check with speadfreak (Max). His shop is in Narragansett, RI. It has a top notch wheel machine, and of course, just about anyone here can vouch for his workmanship.

Fair enough. Those guys are starting to bug me lately anyway.

The trick is to find someone you can trust. Luckily, there are a bunch of tire/wheel shops in the Worcester area.

I appreciate the help. When the wheels arrive from Evolution, you can bet no time will be wasted getting over to Hal's garage.
I will be sure to post the results.

You need to ask Hal to give you a cut on the business that you bring in for him.
