I remember seeing on here somewhere that some local company carries tire rack tires and installs them for their prices, anyone know who this is? thanks. 12/4/2005 9:02:43 PM |

You thinking about Discount Tire? They have a web presence and storefronts in Raleigh and Cary. I've heard of them accepting web prices at the stores.

cheapest place by far online for tires and only 8 bucks per tire and a 2 day zone to ship here...
just my opinion though. 12/4/2005 10:20:52 PM |

^ i tried to get some tires installed there and they couldnt do it. something about reverse-mount and the wheel was too big
but everyone there seemed really nice and i would definitely go there again. 12/5/2005 2:04:43 AM |

ok so if i order a set of 4 tires from tirerack or edgeracing, what is the cheapest/best local place to mount them?

best would, imho, be hubcap heaven in cary (behind pure gold). mark is cool as hell and he's helped me out a few times. he's one of the few people i would trust to not damage my wheels.
dannydigtl swears my MM autowerks, but ive never been there. 12/5/2005 12:40:10 PM |

best or cheapest...pick one
for the best place i'd say MM Autowerks but they are def. not the cheapest 12/5/2005 2:18:21 PM |

yeh, i like MM a lot because Kevin seems like a good guy who'll hook you up if he can. for ex. i was in a jam and needed HPDE 'legal' tires unexpectedly before an HPDE and he gave a used set in great shape for very cheap. i also lost a BBS centercap after i had some tires mounted (like 2 weeks after) and went to him to order me one through tire rack. he ordered it and gave it to me for free since he 'could' have been at fault sine he put took them on/off after the balancing.
he has no problem letting you in the back and talking shop for awhile while hes working on your car, etc.
so he has my business 12/5/2005 5:11:55 PM |

Oddly, my tires will take 3 days to get here, even though I'm on the "2nd day" area from Florida...
If they're not here in time for this weekend, I won't be a happy camper. Ahmet --> Who should've been the guy to say "I spent all my money on Porsches and women, the rest, I just wasted". 12/5/2005 6:16:26 PM |

Where's this MM, and any idea how much would they charge to mount 4 Dot legal R tires? Ahmet 12/5/2005 6:17:54 PM |

westgate and carolina import are the same. if you goto tire rack.com and look up installers you can find the price for them all 12/6/2005 11:23:47 AM |
