I see a tire machine. What would you charge MME members for mount and balance?
We've moved into our new facility and will be having a grand opening on August 22nd. We will have food, tech and door prizes. I'll make a formal announcement next week and I'd like to see some Miatas there. We've also updated our website with service pricing: http://www.protuningperformance.com Feel free to stop by anytime.

Here are some quick shots of the shop:
See you there!
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.
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...![]()

I still need to come see ya'll about a corner balance.
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?
The miata guys that work at ntb and dis. tire have there shops doing it for 10 a wheel and there is a miata guy doing it for you that you personally know so your getting a good deal and work with love =)
Nice looking shop, might have to swing out that way sometime

Thanks for the comments! If any of you attend Drivers Edge events we always come with our truck, tools, and EZ-UP for track side support of our customers.
Looks really nice. You have tons of open space....you need a few cars to store? We have a few you can "borrow".
Wealth, power, and experience are apparently not enough to save us from social influences. Groupthink, as described by I.L.Janis, is the tendency for group members to reach a consensus opinion, even if that decision is downright stupid (Janis 1982).
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?

Nice shop! Do you have a dyno? (What Kind?)
What's left of a '96 Miata with stock clutch.
My car exceeds my driving ability. That's the only possible explanation.
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.
That MR2 looks sweet.
