Default Tire mounting and balancing in NOVA.

I usually go to Curry's Auto but is there another place that can mount and balance without scratching them?

Just Tires

They have a few shops around here but I went to the one on 123 Maple Ave. Alright prices, I have a friend there now, so prices might be a bit cheaper.

i scraped every rim i worked on at NTB, don't go to us Depends...what wheels do you have? I can do sticky weights if you like. Anything higher than 18s, i will not mess with for mounting. Sidewall gets stiffer as you go bigger , you nig..jk.. The most i can tell you is that goodyear has the more reliable mounting machinery, ours is messed up.

I got some 19X8.5 Volk Racing Winning. I called Ultimate performance and they can do the job for a little cheaper than Curry's auto. I learned the hard way with NTB on my first set of rims.

i dont fuck with tire kingdom just as a general rule of thumb...what i've *been* doing was i bought tires from tire rack and then mounted them at the career center (i was a student) for free...but their balancer sucks and i'm no good at it so i ended up gettin them professionally balanced for like 35 bucks or somethin
