    Fair price on Tire install/balance?

    Where does everyone in the Colorado Springs area go to get tires mounted and balanced?

    I will always bring rims/tires off the bike and purchase the tires from someone else.

    Pikes Peak Motorsports charges $40 (or maybe even $44) per wheel. I forgot to bring my rotors once. They are necessary to balance the wheel on most balancers. When I delivered the rotors to them they charged me an additional $50 to put the rotors onto the rims which to me is absurd. It was the afternoon before a track day so I was kind of stuck.

    Apex is a handful of dollars cheaper but I am curious if there is anyone else in town that does it for even less.

    I understand tire swaps are one of those things dealerships use as a cash cow. It's quick and easy for them but i go through 2-6 sets of tires every summer. I may consider buying my own machine if the above mentioned prices are the industry standard cost.
