How are folks getting these tires put on the vehicle? Is this a good price when you consider the cost of mounting and balancing? Will Costco do it?

Most auto service centers or tire stores have a flat fee to remove your old tires and mount and balance new tires that were purchased elsewhere. This is typically around $20 per tire when you include a new valve stem (highly revommended) and the disposal fee of old tire. It is best to call the service center in advance to ask about their policies and prices.

They was really good for the price and super fantastic for my Toyota Camry. Thanks to Amazon so much and the best site to buy tires.

Walmart mounted, balanced with new stems for about $15 a piece and disposed of the old ones. I saved money going this route and they are very good tires. Hope this helps

Costco will only install tires bought from their stores. I had a friend with a shop install it. It's about $12 to mount and balance a tire.

Hey Hank I didn't check the balance but they seem to tow fine. I took them out of the box and put them on and put over a hundred miles on them. My buddy paid a little over twice as much at a store here in town and has had no problems. Hope this helps.

They work wonderful on my 2007 Sierra which has a 4 -2 Drop on it. Seemed like anytime I hit a bump, it would eat at my tire. However sense installing them almost four months ago, I have yet for it to happen again. I put them on with bolt going up, just outside the front springs. Make sure the bolt on top is secured then turn guard until hand tight then 1/4 turn again turning them both at same time, you want ideally 2- 2 1/2 inches between the frame and guard so that it still allows for a smooth ride

You will have to take them in somewhere that has the equipment/tools to 'POP' them on, preferably someplace that is experienced with tractor type tires. Those beads are difficult to get on. That said, I have been real happy with the tires, once mounted (I spent hours trying to mount mine; went to a tire shop (rural), and he used some tool that was gas charged to force the bead over the rim; bout 5 minutes.) He charged me $5.00 (I already had the tire on the rim). Good luck!

Yes, that's what I have done several times. Most motorcycle shops will mount tires you bring in. My wife brings the tires in the van, while I ride the bike over to the shop. She brings me back later when they're installed, and off I go. Tejas Motorsports in Highlands, Tx. (east Houston) will install them and balance them for $37.50 (plus tax & a small 'disposal fee'). It's cheaper if you take the wheels off the bike and bring them in that way. Pretty good deal.

So far we have not had to replace the tires yet. seems they are holding up better than expected. But I did do some research before, below is the Link. they are about $20-$30 per set. http://www.razorama.com/razor-ground-force-drifter-parts-section.html

I have this bike on order and spoke to a sales rep for Prodeco before purchasing and asked him the same question. He said they're available from them for $22 ($12 + $10/shipping). You might want to call Prodeco and confirm this. Sounds reasonable to me.

This was my first install and I had heard that you should get an alignment. I took my 2014 Ram 1500 4x4 to the dealer and both front wheels were out at the top "very little" he said. A very small adjustment was needed and ran $65.

I've got a 33/12.5 mounted on mine. Could prob mount a 40 w/no issues to be honest. Only issue I have is 2 of the mounting bolts are directly in line with the gas tank, so you will need to drop the gas tank to install those bolts. I have left them off for now due to not having a monster size spare tire and the 4 bolts that are installed seem good enough. The other minor issue is that there is a zurk fitting on top of the swing out hinge that was poorly designed as it will break off as soon as you swing open the spare tire mount. No biggie, just poorly designed. Other than that, highly impressed with the purchase. Plus it adds a receiver hitch and comes w/2 d rings. I reccomend it. I've got a 33/12.5 mounted on mine.

Strao that sucker down and adjust the bolts on the rack to let the tire drop in the slot. They have straps for the wheels too ! Keep the rubber side down !

They did not appear to be balance. I did not notice any vibration from the tires, so mine do need balancing.

If you have a Discount Tire close to you and you have them mount them they might warranty them. They have a road hazard warranty that they do. I would call and ask them first. They warrantied my 2 that I got off Amazon and then warrantied my other 2 that had probably 10,000 miles on them. I'm not sure what it cost per tire to have them put them under the warranty. I hope I didn't confuse you lol.

The tires have RWL on one side but not the other. They can be mounted either way.

I would not purchase one on your own... whoever is going to install it will want to buy it... I bought one but no one would install it .....not dependable unless they purchased it... make sure you have a good tire person and they will not over charge you for it... sr

I love the tires. Put them on a stock 96 jeep cherokee for the woods and I think there an awesome tire for the price. There about 6 months old and still Look brand new

Linda, your right, I'm not the guy selling the tires, I bought a set for my lawn tractor. When I got the tires I took them to Discount tire and they were nice enough to put them on for me for free. Not saying they will do it for you but it's not to easy to do it yourself.
