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.

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

Wal Mart -- sometimes the necessary evil.

Yup, monkeydom exists at this Wal Mart. I went back to the same Wal Mart yesterday to get some old Bridgestone S03's mounted on Karen's black car (the tires on it now are toast and I don't want to hydroplane out to Topeka (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ). The Bridgestones are 245/45/16, and the same service writer said they couldn't mount 45 series tires. It didn't dawn on me until Karen mentioned it when I got home that the Hoosiers I had mounted there Saturday were 275/45's. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
