    Good place to mount tires?

    Hey, gang.

    I'm gonna order some new tires for the ol' commuter. Where's a good place to have them mounted that's not gonna rob me?

    Appreciate the info!

    I vote for mounting them on the wheels. jk

    I don't know how far you're willing to drive, but Stan's Automotive up in Lafeyette have always been good for me. One of the board member's family owns it.

    Re: Good place to mount tires?

    I'm considering getting some tires from http://www.tfogwheelsports.com/ locally. (Got the name from this forum actually) and his prices for the tires are darn close to the on-line suppliers and his installation fees seem very reasonable, though I admit to not having much experience in getting bike tires...

    But I'd give him a shout for tires and install before ordering on-line. I like to keep business local if I can

    I was talking about car tire mounting. I saw commuter and figured it was for a car. If it's for the bike, sorry about that.

    Yep...I'm talking about my bike. I'm in Aurora. TFOG's not super far, but I'm gonna see what's closer to home.

    Been there a lot of times to look around. Not very far, so maybe I'll pull the wheels and take them and the new rubber there next week. Cool dude!
