Hi, I just received my wheels (18"x7.5 5-zigen sc3000 hyper black) from a private

seller online and also got four tires (kumho ast 225x40x1. I'm looking for a shop

to mount and balance them but since my wheels have lips and they are pretty

expensive for me, I don't want them to be scratched while mounting tires. In my area,

I see firestone, pepboys, midas, costco, sears, and some individual shops. I don't

wanna go to costco or sears to get them done b/c I don't trust them. What do you

guys think? which shop should I go? I'm leaning to firestone since they are biggest

and maybe reputable shop but I don't want those young kids to ruin my wheels.

Where did you guys mount your tires? major tire shops? individual body shop?

and how much would they charge me for mount and balance 4 wheels? (I'm not buying

anything from them, maybe lug nuts or something)

 

I'm jealous! Those rims are the ish! Do you have an America's Tire Co. in your area? That's where I go for all my tire needs. (They guarantee their work also.) If you don't have one of those, just let your fingers do the walkin' and look in your local yellow pages. Call around and get quotes. Lastly, ask your friends (who have nice, fixed up rides) where they go to get their tires mounted.
