I just transferred to the area and live in Arlington. Looking for a good place to take my bike to get some tires I ordered mounted and balanced.

I would say DIY but you're in arlington so you probably don't have a garage. or tools. and assuming by the fact that you said transferred you're military?
What do you ride?
How far are you looking to drive to find a place?

Personally I recommend Manassas Honda

Lowest price I know is Brooks Cycle Center in Manassas. $25/tire wheel off bike, $40/tire wheel on bike.

Charlie,

You are correct. I am active duty Coast Guard and live in a high rise without the ability to work on my bike in a garage.

I ride a 2006 BMW K1200R and I'd like to find something relatively close by. I work in Alexandria, so I was hoping to hear good things about a shop close by.

Take it easy.

I got a recommendation from a guy I work with. He told me to go to Fairfax Cycles, so I did. I took the tires to them before hand, rode my bike out there and they mounted them for me while I waited. It was first come, first serve thing on the weekend and cost me $100. For anyone asking, I'd tell them to go there.
