Looking for good tire shop in Toronto

Where do you guys go in the GTA to mount/dismount 18" tires? I am looking for a place that can do it without scratching up my OEM rims. Normally I go to an Audi/VW dealership around here since they are used to dealing with 18" rims and Audi-driving as-hole owners. I am open to suggestions here..

As much as I hate to recommend my old dealership, Scarboro Mazda has Hunter equipment that cannot scratch a wheel, it will break the machine 1st. Assuming a few of the techs we trained on it are still there its your best bet!

Al, shouldn't you be busy trying to install anchors in the back of camrys? So the customer will have some way to stop the car.

You sure didn't mind pimping them when you were strutting your fat *** around the showroom. Guess you have some time on your hands in between Toyotas wiping out whole families.

I use Tires23 in Mississauga on Matheson Rd. Google "tires23' for their address.

I purchased my Work Meisters from them and they are accustomed to handling high priced wheels.

Lol I love how Al has his own stalkers on this forum. This is not the first time this anonymous as-hole post garbage like that.
