Tire mount & balance

Post by Foxcow »

When the hell did a mount and balance get so expensive? Just about every place I've called has quoted $30-50 per tire!! I remember when it cost $10 bucks to mount and balance per tire.

Anyone have any suggestions as to where to go to not get ripped off?

I called dobbs, and 25$! Damn. Walmart does it for 10$. But yeah, I dont ever remember it being that much!

I had to read that about 6 times to understand what you were trying to say lol.


This might help everyone understand a little better:

"Ill say this, don't take them to Plaze on Highway K. The only person that knows what they are doing is Midori. He did my front 2 rims, and did a great job. The dude who did my back two, fucked them all up, and they won't fix them either."
