I need to get my winter tires balanced before i change my rims since a weight fell off last season. Can anyone recommend a decent tire place, not terribly expensive? Whats the going rate per tire right now anyway. Thanks!

 

pretty sure Discount Tire does this for free if you have one close to you.

 

I just gave em a call and its 16 per tire, which isn't that bad. But they don't use a hunter road force machine.

does anyone have any input on if road force makes a difference or not? These are aftermarket 17 inchers running blizzaks lm-25.

 

my bad thought they did, I wouldnt worry about road force. I have never had any issues from mounting and balancing all of my tires at Discount.

 

road force is a joke. ****ing hate the thing only good thing its for is to match ****ty rims with heavy tires.. like on the sc430's those rims are terrible and you have to balance them where the heaviest part of the rim meets the lightest part of the tire.. if you have ok rims and good or even ok tires u wont have a problem.
