I see a tire machine. What would you charge MME members for mount and balance?

For you guys I could do $12 for dismount, mount and balance.

Nice shop!

You suck... do you really know how to use all them tools 'n thangs?

Awesome shop. Once you settle on $7.50 per wheel mounted and balanced, will that apply to other MME member vehicles as well? I got a Cayman itchin' for new shoes... :D

For $7.50 per wheel/tire I'll let the muffler shop down the street use their antique machine and hammer on weights. I cringe every time I see those metal claws of death dig into a wheel. We use a Hunter tire machine with all rubber and plastic mounting points and the 3M wheel weight system and have a no scratch guarantee, am I really asking too much?

Looks really nice. You have tons of open space....you need a few cars to store? We have a few you can "borrow".

If we recommend you to others who buy tires online, what is your price to the non-miata crowd for dismount, disposal, mounting, balancing, etc., out-the-door?

I used to charge $15-50 per tire for M&B at my old job. But that was wheel dependent. For expensive $10,000+ sets of wheels it was $50 per tire. Most were in the $20-25 range and $35 for BMW M wheels ;)

Nice shop! Do you have a dyno? (What Kind?)

Our standard rate for dismount, mount and balance is $17 per. We handle Forgeline, BBS, Kinesis, CCW type on a daily basis so we don't charge any more for expensive wheels. All of our service pricing can be found here:

We don't have a dyno in our new facility although the guys that moved in next to our old shop do. PM me for their contact info if you need it.

We charge $250 for corner balancing using our Longacre scales. This includes adding ballast to simulate driver weight and height adjustment to your specs.
