Hi All,

I'm doing some upgrades to my 3rd gen Taco and I need a recommendation. I've just purchased some Method Bead Grip wheels. I need to have my current tires (+1 new one for the spare) mounted on my 5 new wheels. I don't want to trust the teenagers at Discount Tire with this. Does anyone have a recommendation for a shop in or around the Spokane, WA area?

UPDATE: Apparently, because these are bead grip wheels, standard tire shops like Les Schwab and Discount Tire won't mount them. You have to go to a 4x4 shop for this. Luckily for me, there's a really good one in Spokane - I dropped my truck at Hazzard Fab Works this morning. They're mounting my existing tires on my new wheels, replacing my rear aftermarket shock mounts, installing new UCAs, and aligning it. I am so relieved and happy to have a reliable shop in town that knows what they're doing and does excellent work. When I get my truck back, it should be right as rain. So excited!

Try you local Les Schwab tire center. I have no issues when using them.
I’m going to one next week. Discount Tire on the north end of town put one of my uni directional tires on backwards on my Mini. Hopefully, I’ll have a better experience with Les Schwab.
