Anyone from the state of Washington know a tire place for mounting the low profile, TPMS, OEM wheels/tires for C7-ZO6? I'll even drive to Seattle if I have too?

I've used two different Discount Tire locations in Redmond (Seattle suburb), they seemed to have no problem. They did drag radials, swapped my sensors, mounted and dismounted both the factory 20s and the replica 19s without incident.

I used Les Schwab and they didn't seem to have an issue and everything came out fine, no scratches or anything. The bigger shops like Discount and Schwab shouldn't have a problem.

Best to post in PNW section for WA specific questions.

Here's a recent thread on this topic. My recommendation was post #5:

I recommend Prova Motorsports in the Magnolia neighborhood of Seattle or Elliott's tires in Kirkland on 85th. Elliott's mounted my new MPSS' when I took delivery of my Z06/Z07. Prova works on all kinds of race cars and they have the appropriate mounting equipment for low profile run flat tires.

The Redmond store next to Home Depot scratched one of my wheels and used black wheels weights on 3/4 and silver on the other. They made it right, but their carelessness is enough for me to not recommend them.

Bellevue discount tire was quick, professional and one of the few places that could confidently do the run flat ZR1/C7Z wheel and tire combo.

I just bought new tires at Las Schwab in monroe. They had a new fancy machine just for our wide *** meats 17 GS with Z07 performance package. I did have a shock when he said carbon fiber rotors where on the car. Didn't even know....guess the dealer gets the breaks jobs.

Yeah, I noticed the carbon rotors in one of your photos. They have to be careful pulling wheels that they don't crack the rotor. I suppose you have Z07 package if you have carbon brakes and cup2 tires?

I had the Liberty Tire shop in Airway Heights do my track wheels, but the wheel is smaller and rubber bigger. Camp Chevy told me they won't change tires and they would send them to Les Schwab downtown.

Sounds crazy but......the last tires I bought for my old C6 with Z06 wheels and tires were purchased at Costco in Tumwater. They had no trouble mounting or balancing the tires. They did a great job with no issues......highly recommended.

Another vote for discount tires. Had the Puyallup store mount new AS3 runflats,new wheels and new sensors. They did it quickly and clean. No damage to anything. Have also done business with the Auburn store. Same good service.

I went to the Discount Tire store in Bremerton this morning to see about mounting /balancing new run flats for my 17 Z06.

I took one of my new Signature forged wheels with me to show them what I was working with.

I met with the store manager who assured me that they would have no problems mounting the run flats on my new wheels.

He also told me he only lets one tire tech work on the more high end tires/wheels.

So Monday I'm taking the wheels to them and have the just ordered tires installed.

I'll post my thoughts after that.

Just a follow up.

Discount in Bremerton got the new MPSS ZP's in and I took the new Signature Forged wheels to them this morning.

M/B and paint the weights black in 40 minutes.

Tech had me inspect the tires/wheels prior to bagging them up for the trip home. Not a mark on the new wheels.

VERY satisfied with their work, fast and courteous service.

They do price match also.

Discount Bremerton has earned my business from here on out.

I had Discount Tire in Wenatchee, WA. do mine last year without problem. The cost for four corners was about $160.

I know this thread is from last year but since the OP is in the Spokane area,I figured there were some that would not want to travel to the west side. I contacted the a rep for hunter engineering. They make a tire changer that is touchess (revolution). Their reply:

"No one in this area has a Revolution. Les Schwab in Veradale and CDA both have the Auto 34 which is a step down but uses the same touchless technology. They will be able to change your tires with no damage to the wheels. "


Veradale is essentially Spokane Valley/Liberty Lake area. The Les Schwab in Veradale was able to change out my tires (11inch width, low profile run flats) on my WCC three part wheels with no damage. The tires are more expensive then what I was quoted at discount but the cost of one wheel is more than four tires so it was worth it.
