Default Need Tyres Stretched In Newport News Area

Helo all,

I need two tyres stretched, mounted an balanced, and my normal go-to guy can no longer help me out.

The wheels are 14x8 and the tyres are Toyo Proxes ti-r 195/45's

I'd prefer to be able to stay on this side of the water, but if it comes down to it, I'll drive.

INB4 'use the search'...

Thanks in advance for the help...

Believe it or not but the guys at Sears Auto at Pembroke Mall stretched my 18 x 10 with 235/35 tires so u might wanna give them a try again? They never let me down and i got all my new wheel done there (polish, white, silver, machine lips) and never screwed anything up. Pricy though, u get what u pay for so....

Dude named Eddie? At the Suzuki Dealership can stretch a lot of stuff from what Travis (MustB18) says. He stretched the crap out of all his CCW's he had.

This... i haven't used him yet, as the wheels came from CCW with tires already mounted, but I've heard a lot of people saying Eddie is the only one they trust locally.

Voila!

Chris at Merchants mounted them in record time, in the most professional way I've seen so far, and for the cheapest price.

I highly recommend him

Thanks for all the help guys

I wouldn't trust anything that Travis says about stretching things, you may get more than you bargined for.
