Tires / Rims

[bobs600honda]

Going to start shining up my 10" rims and had a question about having the tires taken off the rims (and later, put back on!).
Should I just head over to Big-O or Les Schwab?
I don't want the rims mangled!
Just trying to be proactive here!
Thanks.
Bob

Any advice on removing tires from rims?
Can any tire shop handle this?
Thanks for any info.

Most tire shops car remove the wheels.  I just shipped around to find a place to mount and balance mine because I had them powder coated.   All but 1 place I went to had a machine small enough to do them.

Okay, good advice. �I am going to go for powder coating, so get them mounted and balanced afterwards will be necessary!

My powder coater charged me 350$ for 5 wheels.  He did all the prep and they turned out great.  Would have been cheaper if I would have sandblasted the wheels myself but I was in a hurry so I didn't have time.

Ok. �I got a quote for $50-75 per wheel depending on color. �I intend to go with silver to look as original as possible.

Damn I got mine done for $25 a rim.  If your doing the stock steel wheels you can go to Les Schawb,  if you are in a state where they are at and those are $20 each through them and they will brake them down and re-mount them as well.  $350 ouch. $150 for 4 rims and my front grill  Kurt

Hey Kurt - there is a Les Schawb nearby (here in northern Calif). �In addition to removing tire and re-mounting, did the $25 per wheel include powder coating?

Ya this was the first time it's been this expensive dont know why.  All the other items I've had done have been very cheap.
The quality is great and I had them dome in 4 days though so I can't complain.
