If you get tires and need them mounted and balanced, I have a tire/balance machine in my garage. If you know how youre welcome to use it. All you have to do it buy me a box of sticky weights for the balancing.

Is that a "no touch" machine that protects the rim lip or the standard type? In your garage like at your house or an actual shop? A buddy of mine has a shop and he has a "no touch" machine and he's the only one that I take my cars to (have to take the trick to a different place though because he doesn't do trucks).

No. I definitely have to touch the rims but there are ways to prevent any damage. One is to know what your doing. but it works on truck rims and tires. I put some Hummer tires on my dads stock F250 rims.

Low pro's are a ***** to get on but we can do it. and your rims being not perfect makes it easier. Less stress. haha.
