| Tire mounting in lower mainland
Any place in the lowermainland-Surrey that can mount lowpro tires to my 19" Vmr's WITHOUT scratching them? that isn't going to cost me a fortune.
I went to Tirecity in Surrey today and got them to mount a tire on my brand new flawless rims and the brown dude scratched it up... pretty choked |

Just don't go to any shops in Surrey and you'll be fine.

Drive Hard Performance in Richmond they are a respected sponsor here, did my 20's while back, they mounted 245's on my 10.5 wide front rim and 285's on my 12.5 rears... So both super wide wheels and pretty stretched tires, and shit came out spot on, i been recommending them to all my friends, also doesnt hurt that they pretty much have the best prices around Posted via RS Mobile |

+1 for TSS, only shop I trust! They have done a few sets for me now, even stretching a 235 on a 10.5. Flawless each and every time Posted via RS Mobile |

Big-O-Tire in maple ridge supposedly handles all the low-pro tire mounting out here according to the head mechanic @ canadian tire
took mine to them and they did a good job $120
(kal tire wouldnt do it because i didnt buy my tires from them)

Only reason I went there in the first place is because it was recommended to me.
On the topic of Surrey, I only go to PG performance. However, PG has sent me to ABV automotive just down the street on some jobs they could not do. (allignment)
ABV is another shop I would trust after using them a few times, on the recommendation of PG of course. But only those two would I ever let touch my car.
