Went to get some new treads today and had to leave my wheels overnight as they didnt have the right shit to stretch 'em on. I contemplated just buying them half fitted (as they were a good price) but then had no idea who would be able to do them.

So, i thought everyone could share which tyre shops they favour, and in the interest of people not getting f'd around dont just post up your gf's dads shop just so you get laid.

Cheers, Will.

its an old fella who owns the shop but he had the nuts to fit 185/60 to 9" two years ago for me when everyone else on here said it wasnt possible cause noone tried yet,
he wont deny you he enjoyed the challenge just ripped out the baby elephant and gave it a few shots

I ran 185/60's on a 10 on my S13 a couple of times. Blast on first shot every time.

Yep, its not actually mine, but it resides at my house next to my tyre machine.

This is also quite an effective method.
