Default Shops?
Anyone know of a tire shop that will take my tires and put them on a different set balanced and then put back on the car for less than $60?

Last time I went to get my own tires mounted at Costco, they refused. They told me due to insurance reasons, they would only mount new tires purchased from them.

You may want to call before wasting a trip there.
