Anyone have a good, inexpensive place for doing tire changes? The area Stealers want an arm and a leg to mount and balance a tire/wheel.

Better to be judged by 12, then carried by 6.

Hey Tony. Not sure how far you live from Roanoke but they do them at the Biker Stop on US 24 just south of St Rd 114. Trapper has done 4-5 tires for me over the years. I do bring him the rim and tire tho, as he is a HD mechanic. He even did my CT. He charges somewhere around $25-$40. Sometimes same day turn around.

Thanks a ton, Brian. I may check him out. I was planning to remove the wheel myself and then reinstall, so that I know it was done correctly. I can usually make Roanoke in 20-30 minutes, so it's not that far away.

Thanks, again!

    Tony
      I take my wheels to Gary Osborn on Washington Ctr rd. He's one of my oldest friends
      from childhood,  $20 is what the charge is for a R and R with balance.
      Tell him I sent ya..

Redline is only $13 more than Hayden Honda. My time is worth more than $13, so Redline it is, though Wupster makes a great case for Gary Osborne on Washington Center.

Ehlerding pissed me off for the last time over a stupid $5 screw. They'll never see another penny from me for sales or service. (Sorry, MAD6Gun).
