    Do you remember the name? Do they take good care not to scratch the wheels?

    +1 on Hamm's for my daily, my 6UL mounting problem is still not solved. I might take them to 5th gear because i don't want them torn up.

    Discount Tire in Lewisville would not mount my 225s on them and I don't trust just anyone to be careful when the mount them on my semi-nice wheels. I don't treat them like they're Volks or anything, I just don't want to beat them up if I don't have to...but Discount won't do it, lol.

    I only own Miatas so I can't exactly take them to Quan.

    BAM! is now mounting tires at Vorshlag. We're limited to 17" wheels and smaller, but i don't think that will be an issue for Miata guys.

    225s on a 9" wheel, will you do it? Will you also flip the 205s on my 8's regardless of what the wear looks like? I want them flipped because I run 3* of camber up front so they are worn on the inside 1" of rubber, lol.

    As long as there isn't secondary rubber showing on your tires I can flip them. Also I can cheetah and try my best with what I have to mount it for you. If I can't get it to seat(which I haven't had an issue so far) I won't charge ya for mounting it on there.

    Jason,

    Do you have balancing equipment as well? What are you charging?
