    Tire changing

    Does anyone know where to get tires swapped for reasonable prices in the greater Boston area? I can't seem to find any shop that will do it for less than $80 a wheel, which seems ridiculous. All the shops seem to have disdain for putting on tires that you didn't buy from them. Back home in SC I had a place that would do it for $40 a wheel ($20 if you brought the wheel in yourself!) Is there any good source to check out? Thanks
