Tire Changing and Balancing
Some time ago in a galaxy far, far away I had a friend who owned a Harley shop. He used to do the work on my bikes.
Once the Harley craze took over the Earth, he was to busy making money so he didn't have the time to mount and balance tires.
He graciously allowed me to use his tools. This worked out in my favor. I would show up at his shop whenever
I needed tires and mount and balance my stuff and if he had any customer wheels I would catch them for him. After about a fifteen year relationship,
it became to inconvenient for me and my friends to meet and go to the shop to do tires. So I bought my own tools. This gave me the luxury of changing
tires at odd times day or night. Once word got out that I had the tools, people started flooding to my house from everywhere.
Now we live in the mountains and I still have my tools. So for the cost of wheel weights and a valve stem, I will mount and balance your tires.
I don't do this as a business. I already know how to make money. I do this to meet people and make new friends.
And most of all to find people who have the same outlook on life as I have, who enjoy riding the twisty roads that God has created for us.
If this sounds like you, come on by and I will take care of your tires.
I am not responsible for lost or damaged tires.
You will be amazed at how much you will save over going to the dealership.
Once you get your tires e-mail me: MikeE@ridewnc.com
We will set up a time and date when it will be good for both of us to do this.
I prefer the wheels be off the bike, but if you have never done it before I will help you.
I charge 10.00 per wheel. This is not a labor charge and I am not a business.
The 10.00 dollars pays for wheel weights, valve stem and tire disposal fees.
I now install steel valve stems. I have rubber stems if you prefer those.
I will order tires for you: You will pay the full price in cash up front.
I will not do Spoke Wheels.
I will not do tube wheels.
I will not do Motocross Wheels.
MX'er I will take the tire off for you.
Now the fine print:
I am not responsible for any damage to your wheel.
I will use all the safe guards to protect the wheel from damage.
But just like at a dealership, wheels do get scratched. Paint does chip.
Tire changing damage is always bound to happen.
I can and have saved people virtually hundreds of dollars over the
dealership. If you think the saving is worth the risk, then bring me your wheels.
If you are in need, I sometimes have used spare tires available.
I always have used 120/70-17 front tires available, brands vary.

I have plenty of Pilot
Power and Pilot Power 2CT in stock.
180/55-17 and 120/70-17
190/55-17 in PR2 and PP 2CT
Aluminum 90* right angle valve stems for front wheels. I will be selling these for 15.00 installed. No more fighting with the brake rotor to get to check your air pressure.
Swing Arm Spools/Bobbins. I have swing arm spools for 10.00 installed. Now
you can get the swing arm stand which uses the spools. They are much easier
to use than the regular swing arm stand.

I use current http://www.JakeWilson.com pricing.
If I buy your tires for you,
I will knock off 10.00 per set from the Jake Wilson price.
I have a Coats 220 Motorcycle Tire Changer.
This does an excellent job of changing any motorcycle tire.
Then once the new tire is on the wheel I can perfectly computer balance the wheel.
The Snap-On Computer Balancer gets the job done quick.
