Upon the suggestion of a few members, I picked up a set of billet specialties win lites and MT ET street Rs.

I called a few shops today get them mounted. Only one shop so far said they would do the touchless installation on tires that wide, but it would be $200 for mounting and balancing. Kinda made my jaw hit the floor. I mean 100 per tire to mount and balance??? Am I out of touch or is this price about right?

The guy I've used a few times charges me 25.00 per to mount a set of Nitto NT05r's on my 20x11 HR5 replicas. I think it's a pretty good deal and so far no wheel scars from the m&b.

That's way too high. There are plenty of tire shops that mount big tires on 22-24 inch and larger rims. Look around some more.

$20-$25 per tire is what I've seen in my area for m/b.

You can always try a place that does truck tires, but from what you're describing, it's not like your wheels/tires are gigantic.

I'll keep looking. You're right, they aren't gigantic. 17×10 wheels and 305/45-17 tires. I'm being fairly similar to quite few here. Haha.

I paid far less than that for a premium mobile service to come TO my house...

$30/tire if I recall correctly.

Touchless, road force, professional (not a tire monkey)

I'm in Northern Virginia, about 30 miles south of DC.
Wish I could help you, I'm in NY, so we're just a bit too far...

PS, just noticed it's posted on the left there. Sorry.

No worries! Thanks for looking out. But, yes, a little far!

Also are they beadlocks? I mount my own beadlocks for safety measures but you got my friends cell phone # so hopefully you'll get them mounted soon!

Nope, not beadlocks.
