Default wheel, install and blanaced?? alignment ??GTA area

do any of you toronto guys know where i can get my wheel mounted and balanced for a good deal? ** most importantly good install**
i've call wheel direct all day today but the phone line was busy >_< and when i called yesterday they put in on hold for over 8 mins so i hang out.. Grrrrrrr.


Acura quoted me $50 + $10 per each wheel + tax.

Acura alignemt is 119.95 + tax (and they are all booked up, so i can't get it done till this weekend) ??

dose these sound about right?

Try Wheel & Tire Zone - really know their stuff. They do a lot of business with the Solo 1/2 crowd.

The problem is many places do not balance tires properly. So far, I have bad experience with Costco and "wind cloud" (in chinese). The wheels hopped after they balanced the tires and once I re-balanced them at my mechanics, everything is fine. My mechanic is in Mississauga, don't know if you want to come that far. I assume you are in Richmond Hill area.

"Wheels and Tire Zones" is in Mississauga too. North York to Miss is about 20 mins drive. I once drive from my house to Time Square (Hwy 7, 404) in less than 25 mins.
