Discount tire.

Chopped54 · 02-12-2009, 01:46 PM

I use a cheap little place in Garland called First Discount Tire.
I have used them to mount wheels more expensive then CCW with no issues at all..

black50 · 02-12-2009, 02:39 PM

I would just take them to discount tire and tell them you want to watch over there shoulder while they do it...or they dont get your bussiness

coley · 02-12-2009, 02:54 PM

not many people, I usually do them my self here at work.

Chopped54 · 02-12-2009, 02:55 PM

I have just never understood why pay more at Discount. I went to Discount this past Sat to get some tires that I bought from the Discount Tire warehouse mounted for my old lady's SUV. I figured they may do a decent price since I bought from them, and they were the closest to my house. They wanted $120+ tax just to mount and balance, on top of all the other bullshit extras they try to sell like tire siping, and rebuilding the TPMS on a year old car. Tried Firestone after that and they wanted $90 plus "reprogramming" the TPMS sensors. Do people really buy into that shit?
SO I drove 15 miles to my faithful old hole in the wall and got them done on the same exact machines by old boys that have been doing since they could walk for $40!

Believe it or not, a little place over in Dallas at the corner of 35E and Royal lane called C&M Tire & Wheel....it's a dump but they have it down with mounting on expensive wheels....I usually always deal with the owner, a guy named Moses. They have one of those touchless machines that they use. You know if they are mounting up those gold plated Daytons and crap, they know how to be careful.!

Seriously though, I trusted them with my Billet Vintiques and they did an excellent job....not sure how they compare to CCW's in price, but they were no where near cheap.

They used to have one of those over off of Munger and I30. It may still be there, haven't been there in a while.
