Pete can you drive it to a truck tire shop? It would be cheaper to do that than have them come to you. Experience talking!! Gomer | ||

Is this an "emergency...on the road type change, or just a question for "normal service"? RCB | ||

Depends on where you are and who you know. How far they have to travel. Did you buy the tires from him? If not idono 100, 125. If he knows what he is doing it wont take that long. | ||

Normally, my experience is that a shop that sells the tire will do the rest for little to no extra. "shop" around....squeaky wheels get greased, if you get the drift...remember balancing, etc etc etc. If you don't live in a "transportation" area, make some calls elsewhere. Lot's of good deals out there if one has the tenacity to pursue. FWIW. RCB | ||

You should get charged x for a wheel switch, x for a dismount and x for a remount, plus x for a service call. Call around. |
