Default Wheel Mounting/Balancing

In the near future I plan on picking up new wheels and tires soon. I need to find a person who charges a fair price for mounting and balancing 19/20" wheels. I usually go to see one of my friends in the city and would do all4 for $20 but his equipment doesn't handle 20" and that's what I plan to get.

Northern Chicago/Suburbs would be preferred area!

And on that side note if you have 19/20" wheels/tires send me a PM. (3GS)

Thanks in advance

Discount tire should be able to handle it. What are you looking for? I have a set of 20" rims for sale, used for 4 mos or less, that are for a 3GS. PM me if your still looking.

Come by Topspeed, We got a Coats 9024e mounting machine. We can do up to 26" rims. I think we charge $72 to get it mounted and balanced.

Yea I want something more aggressive with the new drop on coils. Im trying to get adjustable arms for the front and rear to correct camber and toe so this may allow the rims to be flush again where I wont need to mess with them. No one makes anything for this car so its hard to find stuff and the time to get it done. You should stop by and see how low the car is next time your out this way.

Sorry to be late with this thread but:

Waukegan Tire is really good with custom wheels. They do 24's all the time, so I think 20's would be no sweat to him.
