Philly area people.. where do you get your tires mounted and balanced?

Just curious.. I don't need to pay for a Hunter GSP mounting if I can go somewhere where there is a person who is knowledgable.. I know of lots of places back where I am from but don't want to drive all that way in my miata with 4 tires (I haven't even figured out if they will all fit).. I also don't like to pay a premium of $25/tire for Hunter..

I hope someone can be of assistance....

I normally just take my tires and rims to be mounted at a friends gf's uncles shop. he charges about 15-20 bucks a wheel. I dunno if it involves throwing away the tires though. Its in philadelphia (south philly) i think 4th and moore.

I went to a place literally right around the corner.. German Auto Specialists or something like that.. they always had some really neat cars in their lot so I figured they're not morons.. lugs weren't overtightened, balancing seems okay.. no shimmy.. bit steep considering I could have paid the same amount for a Hunter GSP mounting and balancing.. ($118.72)


Paul thinks my car needs to shocks good excuse to spend money on the car..

I go to this ghetto place in North Philly. It's about $75 for all 4 tires mounted/balanced/dispose old tires.

My friend actually got his tires for his TSX mount at a Wal-Mart. I think in the Exton or Chester area? I can't remember the price, but i remember it being VERY cheap. Plus you get free tire rotation (if you wanted it).
