Tire Mounting
I just picked up new winter tires for my stock rims and new rims and summer tires also, so the question of the day is who do you trust to mount them correctly and safely, so i don't damage the new rims.
i'm just outside of philly and don't mind a 30-40 min drive, just could be a little difficult with 2 sets of tires and another set of rims all in the back of the STI

difficult? i thought you were the s2000 support vehicle
I got mine done at CJ's tires, who also did a custom alignment (UK spec) and they did a great job. I think its a reasonably sized chain near west chester. I think Heather recommended them when she was at her old job

I always take just my wheels and tires to my installer, and use an alternate vehicle to transport the wheels / tires. It's a good time to clean the inner barrel of the wheels. I also tend to take off the sticky weights before hand to lessens the the chance of a fuck-up.

i figure putting both sets of tires and a set of wheels in the STI will force me to clean it out. so its win win win in the end
Just saying, sh!t happens.

Which wheels did you get for the summer, the SE wheels or those TE37's?
I got my wheels mounted at Auto Werx in Brookhaven, nice shop and good people, and they don't mind you hanging out in the shop while they work. Ask for Brian.
