Got the Mickey Thompsons' in yesterday. Went all over town trying to find someone who could mount them on the car. Apparently, the 11 inch wide rims were too wide to fit on any local station's machine. In desperation, I went by Walmart. My wife is in management there, and the tire guys there know me... they agreed to try. I stood by and watched their every move. Had a kid about 20 that treated my car like it was his baby....even had me back it in because he "didn't want to risk hurting that beauty".
He did a perfect job, protecting the rims with rags so they wouldn't be scratched, and balancing them to perfection.
I've driven about 150 miles having fun since. The car handles much better with some meat on the back...I think I'm gonna like the tires.
