    Albert (Mr Fujiwara) on the forums can do tyre changes. He's got a bead blaster (baby elephant) as well. Can't remember what his prices were, but they were pretty decent. Was gonna get some tyres fitted from him, but couldn't wait for him to get back locally.
    Previous ride: 4AGE powered KE70.

    Current: JZX100 Chaser and '73 Datsun 240z.

    If your tyre shop wont stretch them, see if they will fit them and Albert should be able to stretch them for a bit of coin. Ill direct him to this thread tonight/tomorrow.

    Don't really need them stretched, just swapped over, doing a track day next weekend, just need the semis put on.
    Thanks for the suggestions
