Need a GOOD tire mounting shop in GVA ASAP!
I never thought this would be a problem, but im having one hell of a time finding someone that is willing to install my 275/30-19's on my 19x10's. I’ve called pretty much every tire shop I can think of and they tell me that there is a possibility that they would inadvertently scratch the rims when installing the tires due to their low profile.
My current tires are super bald and I’m going on a 500+Km road trip next Monday so I’m hoping to get them installed before. Thanks in advance for your help.

We have the newest Corghi tire machine here at Autohaus and we can do rims up 24", without scratching (most of the parts that contact the tire are either rubber or plastic).
Also if you follow us on twitter, its $10 per tire!! Last edited by kyo21; 07-26-2010 at 10:12 PM.. Reason: wanted to add emoticon |

So a total of $40 + Taxes If not or you come in after the promotion is over, its usually $20+ per tire depending depending on wheel size. Last edited by kyo21; 07-28-2010 at 02:27 AM.. Reason: adding more info |

A friend of mine who works in the auto industry recommended a place called "drivehard performance" to do my tires. I had an appointment booked today but when I got there the guy at the front desk told me that his mechanic is sick today...ya thanks for telling me once I got there buddy, what, your phones don't work?....I hate when these tools that know nothing about customer service waste my time like that. The place looked like a dirty chop-shop anyways, so it's probably for the best that they didn't do my tires.
Anyways, off to SR!
