    Default TIRE INSTALLATION!!!!! GWINNETT AREA!

    MODS PLEASE CLOSE THREAD!! THANKS Jvillagran2000!



    I tried looking thru our sponsors but i cant seem to locate a shop that does wheel balancing and tire installation on brand new wheels. I am looking to see if anyone knows where i can go for a cheap mount and balance. Not trying to pay like 100 bux at All tire near my house or Discount tire. Franchises are way too expensive. anyone know of any places in lawrenceville or gwinnett area? Maybe even towards gainesville? please lmk

    btw they are 19" wheels with 35 series tires.

    go down buford hwy to all the Hispanic used tire places..im sure they will be under 100$ for all 4 mounted.
    napa service center on buford hwy charges like 20$ per tire if i remember correctly,we use to use them for our alignments for work.

    And you don't remember how to get there???

    From Gwinnett Place Mall, you take 85S to Exit 101 (Indian Trail Rd), Go left across the bridge towards Lilburn, 4 miles or so to a right onto Hwy 29/Lawrenceville Hwy, about 1-1.5 miles and the shop is on the right just before Rockbridge road right next to a diner called "Judy's Diner".

    I can't remember what mount and balance charge is, but you can call the shop and they'll tell ya. I think it's $21/tire, but don't quote me on that.

    $100 isn't really that bad. I run a used tire shop, we charge $10 for 15's or smaller, $15 for 16's-18's, and $20 for 19's or bigger. You are right about going to a used tire shop. Most used tire shops are very careless about mounting and balancing. Also most used tire shops wont be held reliable if a wheel does get scratched, so you might be better off going to a new tire shop. Bagwell mathis and lanier tire in cumming should do it for $15-$20 per wheel and are very good and have the latest equipment.
