Tire mounting in Vancouver

i know there are places like Advanced motor spots

or ok tires, kal tires, big o tires


but they are quoting me like 30 buck a tire

i am done with my RFT and got some Kumho ASXs

i have to take the RFT off and mount/balance the Kumho

I called around a few weeks ago and some places were only $20/tire. I called Volco and a few of the other places you mentioned. Did they raise the prices 10 bucks in a few weeks?

i think the price different is because of the different inch....
What inch of the wheel are you going to mount the tire on?

damn....it usually costs $50 here for them to mount the tire onto the wheel and then jack your car up to mount the wheels onto your car. i just mounted my winter tires on my winter wheels and that was $40 for all 4. he said for another $10 i could have had them mounted onto my car.

No.

Is the $40 worth having fu*ked up wheels?
