I know of a good place in Orlando, but that might be too far.  Please tell us where you live and that would help narrow it down.

I bought a tire machine from Harbor Freight a few years ago. It was around $80. I have mounted tires on all my bikes and on my trailers. It is SO convenient to be able to do your own.

Its not rocket science its just mounting a tire. You dont need someone who is really good, just someone who can do it. I mean seriously Chillin does his own, cant be that hard, lol.

If it is on aluminum rims, Broadway Tire in Tampa will do them for around $5 each. Just be absolutely sure to only let Roger or Dale do them, if they are busy then wait or come back later.

Yes they are not hard however the .125 wheels are thin and will bend under the right circumstances

Thats why I said ONLY let those 2 guys do it. The other guy bent 2 of my cousins rims.(.125)

i could have my dad check because they say they don't do like chrome rims but they did my dads hyabusa wheels without scratching them, if you go, just gett to know and have dennis change your rims
