Anybody else "discovered" Wal Mart for tire mounting? Got two Hoosiers mounted today for a grand total of $13.68 (no balancing but included new valve stems and dismounting two tires off said rims). Although YMMV depending on the service writer who happens to be working. The guy here had to check with his tire changer dude to see if he could mount the 275/45/16's on 16X8 rims. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) He didn't know (yet) they were Hoosiers with mucho-stiff sidewalls. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

I imagine if I go in there enough, they won't question me anymore.

Wal Mart -- sometimes the necessary evil.

Yeah, I used Wal-Mart for my mounting... Hoosiers $14/set to mount. This is 275/40R17 on 17x9's.

They also throw out tires for free (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Ordinarily I hate Wal-Mart, but not many places can mount them and I don't know if there is a place that can do it that cheaply.
