    Hey TW, looking for help getting tires mounted on some TE37’s. I am paranoid because I have had bad experiences in the past. Any recommendations of a good tire shop in the south bay that I can trust not to mess up my wheels when mounting tires and balancing?

    I’ve gone to several America’s Tire shops and only found one that actually used a torque wrench. It’s really a gamble. Good luck with your search! If you’re anywhere near HB the one on Warner has been pretty good for me.

    I go to any tire shop or Costco

    then I trust myself to scratch my wheels off roading and not worry because it’s a truck

    Costco says to torque check after 100 miles. A torque wrench is $30.

    I’ve actually been to a few Americas tires and seen them all use a torque wrench I have nothing but good stuff to say about those guys and they always get my business
