Ok, some of you know my story. I have 17" AT Italia custom rims with a fairly large offset and needed a new set of Yokahamas from TireRack mounted.

My Acura dealer couldn't touch them which his machine. Three other custom installers turned me away, one said he didn't have the right machine (a TireRack authorized installer no less!) and one actually damaged my rims trying (ARGH!!)

TireRack then referred me to another installer in South Windsor.

This guy is AWESOME. Not only did he perfectly mount and balance my tires, he showed me his machine and how to adjust it to properly install tires on custom rims.

I won't mention the name due to forum policy - but email me at xorg@yahoo.com for the name.

This shop is simply the best around Hartford, and highly recommended. Price was right too!
