Need a recommendation: San Diego Wheel + tire mount/balance

I did a search, and didn't come up with much, so as the subject suggests... :peace:

I've got the wheels in the back of my truck right now, and I need to get them mounted, high-speed balanced, and valve stems tonight or "the wife" is gonna kill me. lol

Any of you guys recommend a good place in San Diego (I work in Kearny Mesa right next to fun bike center off the 52 between the 15 and 805).

I'm just worried if I take them to any old tire place, they won't be gentle with the polished lips, and such.

Take it to Tommy @ Discount Tire in IB. 5 South then exit on Palm Ave turn left and it's on your left hand side. Tell him I sent you. :thumbup:
Im going there today. He closes at 6, hopefully he can squeeze me in since i wont get there till 430 or 5
Just PM'd you a contact that I have at Discount Tires in Escondido.
Whichever one you choose make sure you get there soon!! Just got back from lunch and it was a zoo out there. Friday + Rain = :wall:
woohoo, you guys rock! thanks for all your help, i just wasn't sure if we needed special equipment to mount the low pro's on nice wheels (i was worried about them scratching the lip etc).

turns out the valves came with the wheels, and i got them done at discount tire off convoy for $100 out the door, guy's name was Patrick.

i'm not used to driving the truck, especially in the rain, so man i wish i had some videos to put up on youtube later! the surface streets weren't bad at all, and actually pretty empty if anything. had the truck completely sideways hahaha
Pics pics pics!
yes....what kind of wheels and what kind of car?

Holy! WOW!

Since Chris got his tires done already. Time to go ADD on this thread.


Thanks Ling!!!! Would you be able to take some pics of my car when all of the installs are done!?
Sure, silver cars FTW!
You don't have to take pictures of the whole car, just the suspension stuff. I can't afford the full car services!
Haha, the wheels are Lexion staggered, 19x8.5 front, and 19x9.5 rears; black with polished lip on a black/black CLK320 (Soshanna's car she's talking about it in the newbie forum).

Actually Len, she also is really into Photography.. I believe she's got a Canon 20D Digi SLR, and she's taken some rockin' shots. So if you wanted some of your ride.. you helped us out big time with the suspension and we'd be more than happy to return the favor.

That's my favorite price... Free ninety Free!
PICS or BAN. :D
