good place to get tires mounted, north NJ?
Just got a set of 18" Blizzaks for my winter tires. Any suggestions for a place to get them installed that won't charge too much? I want to put them on my stock rims, and the Mazda dealer quoted 200 bucks
I live in Jersey City, anyone know a decent shop in the "area" (don't mind a little drive)

its usually 20-25 on average at a decent shop but you can expect tire places like action tire on 46 and the likes to be 40 per rim.....the dealer is 50ish.....and yeah thats the place bergen tire....thats where i got mine done....they were pretty gentle too and didnt damage my oem dark chromes or my aftermarket rims

Went to Bergen Tire and am very satisfied with their work. I paid something like 105$ for everything, with tax. A little disappointed they used clip-on weights instead of the glue-on ones i had before, but oh well. They're winter tires, i'm not gonna be testing the top speed :-D

Yes... The other thing they did that kind of made me cringe was use an impact wrench... By the time I realised they were doing it, it was too late to stop them
I just retorqued all the nuts by hand tonight. 85ft.lbs. Gonna keep checking to see if I need more
