Alot of people may be able to mount tires....but who can GUARANTEE they won't screw up over $5000 in rims and still be able to mount a 345x30x19 on a 12.5" rim? That's who I'm looking for.

Might want to contact a porsche dealer or someone that is used to dealing with larger tires with expensinve rims.

Like Rich, I'm looking for someone who will do my HREs without fricking them up.

Khoi, I suggest calling Auto Sound and Security. I used to work there and we always had to do 40 and 35 series tires. their machine is nice and they have a brand new balancer as well. call up tony 757-420-1783. Tell him you are friends with me and he'll give you a good price. (make sure you tell him the tire and rim sizes.)

That's Rex Harris' shop. He's one of the local Corvette guys. He has the latest and greatest Hunter equipment, but he only does it on the side. You may want to give him a call before heading over there.

I take all my wheels to Pungo Off Road. You can't beat their prices and they have never had any trouble or caused any damage mounting any tire wheel combo I have thrown at them. For those of you that know me, you know that I am a tire whore, therefore I get to visit Pungo Off Road quite frequently.

I have had them mount anything from 235/45-13s for my Miata to 275/30-18s for my 540 and many in between. Last time I was there they were mounting a set of Nittos on some 24s for a Super Duty. They can do it all.


Damn...I sound like a Pungo Off Road pimp. No affiliation what so ever, just passing on good service.

I have had my R compunds mounted to my race wheels at Pungo Off-Road with no problems.

Surprisingly Hall Nissan was cheaper.
