    :) Alright guys i had 4 tires i need mounted and balanced so i called a few places to get prices. This is what i got for those of you who ever need this info.

    Kauffman - will only mount tires they sell and then its free.

    NTB - 10.99 a tire mount
    15.99 a tire balance

    Walmart - 3.50 a tire mount
    7.50 a tire balance

    so walmart definatly takes the cake at around 45 bucks for all 4 tires. versus kauffmans gayness and NTB's 107 and some change.

    i had my tires installed at kauffman... and i had provided the tires

    i first went to the walmart across from genya's house... after leaving it there for 2 hours, when i returned to pick it up, they said they couldn't do it cuz they don't have the tools to mount 'rubber band' tires

    So did I, that franchise must suck. Kauffman is the best deal. Big Ten charged me 20 bucks the other day to take a tire off and put it on my new wheel...got ripped.

    AFAIK Walmart uses the weights that attach to the outside of rim. I prefer the inside weights.

    I just tried calling them, they said they would remove my tires off the OEM rim, mount and balance on new for $12/tire.

    Also, what's a decent price for a set of 02-04 used WRX rims?

    Im an asst. mgr. dtc.. trust me just like everything you get what you pay for! With Discout Tire we mount and balance anything and "if" we scratch a wheel we pay for it. I work at Steve Reynolds now and if you need your tires mounted and balanced see me for $48
