Last time I asked this question it was for my dd Mini. Some here heartily recommended America's Tire in Murrieta and I tried them. They dinged my wheel the first time, overinflated the tires and forgot to reset the TPS. Despite that, I gave them a second chance (with the Mini) and they did better but I will not trust my C7 to them. I'm willing to pay for quality work and go a bit out of my way to get it.

So, give me your top tire shop picks in the general vicinity.

TIA

Nobody? I have tires from Tire Rack on the way.

The only shop I have used is America's tire on Central in Montclair. So far I have not had any problems with them.

...or the one in Hemet.

Thanks, guys.

I'll probably pull the wheels off and take them and the tires in the wife's Audi rather than have them try to jack it with their onsite lifts.

Actually, the place I like is called Tire Site on Mission Trail.

This place is third world looking but they do a great job. I take my SRT8 Jeep there (20"s), My Mustang GT (19"s), and they removed 315/35 18 s and mounted 305/35 18s for my Vette (10.5 inch rims), without a scratch and perfectly balanced. I removed the Vette wheels and threw them in the Mustang to get them there , because the driveway is gravel and my Vette is lowered.

When you pull in you might be nervous, but I go no where else. When I buy tires from Tirerack, I take them there to mount.

Thanks, guys. I ended going to America's Tire in Hemet and they did an OK job, although, I watched as they swapped the new tires on and, despite my pleadings to be careful, the techs man-handled my wheels. They did scratch the inner barrels but, thankfully, the outer faces left just as they arrived. Think I'll keep looking - especially because this was a bit of a drive for me and the level of service was the same as the Murrieta store.
