    Tire Purchase/Mounting

    So I used to just buy my tires online and have one of the local shops mount them, but a lot of shops won't mount tires that you did no buy there now or charge a very high amount to mount them. Looking for a reasonably priced shop relatively close to Lowell, MA (30 minutes tops) that deals with Pilot Powers.

    Thanks

    Well, if ya wanna take em up to Manchester NH you can bring em to Jim Pidgeon. I've brought rims & tires to him in the past, as have alot of people here & I don't think anyone here has had a single bad experience.

    I did not even think of that till right after I posted this and then noticed the sticky again. So I guess I will be ordering them online and giving Jim a call.

    Thanks.

    I will look into both once the tires are in. Right now just trying to figure out where to buy the tires. There are a few sites I have used before. Anybody know of any specials or group buys?

    I would love to do that but he even said himself in posts before that he does not deal with street tires.

    Did you talk to him? He sold me mine. He did a group buy with Michelins the end of last year.

    Just had Jim mount/balance some up a few weeks ago that I had ordered online.. Charged me $30 for both, i think he may charge extra to get rid of old ones, mine were already off the rims and I had gotten rid of the oldies..
