What's the Most You've Paid To Mount & Balance 4 Race Tires?
Indy Porsche Road/Race Shop, Cleveland OH.
18" Wheels. 4 dismount, 4 mount & 4 Balance. $178 inc.. tax and I took the old tires home with me. I tried to explain to the owner that this was almost twice as much as trackside tire support charges and I wouldn't be bringing anymore tire service to him.

Trackside is definitely on the highside for me.

so you guys balance your race tires? i was told years back to balance the rims, then just swap tires on and off since a chunk of rubber just throws them off anyway on the track.

$100 would have been OK. The not so funny part is I've known this shop for many years, I even used to have their name on my old 944 Turbo race car. I've also referred many customers to them over the years. Never again!
