^^ yeah, it sucks.. might as well just burn the money

^I think tire kingdom charges like $20 or more per rim, they rape you for tire disposal and then rape you for not buying the tires from them.

Advanced Performance Tire off Linebaugh a few feet from Gunn Hwy. BTW, I'm sure I'm not going to be the only person to recommend them. They have always treated me great and they have great prices.

sounds ghetto, but wal mart.

I had them mount like 2 or 3 sets of tires for me. from honda's to low profile 275's on 17's. never messed up. Cheapest i've ever found. They normally have a better guy do them, try and talk to him, ask for stickey weights or w/e, and then give him like an extra 5 10 bux. It's worth it

me? I just drive in... I've always gone to the one off Tampa RD and Forrest lakes, not sure if it will make a difference but they earned the word of mouth from me. Like I said, it all depends on the actual guy who does them too though.
