Tire shops

Recommended Posts

Hello forum members...

 

I'm looking for a little help. I'm looking for new tires on my 2014 Jeep Wrangler unlimited. Size is LT 285/70/17. I'll need 5 and will be using the stock wheels so I'd like to the half the TPMS reinstalled.

 

Funds Are in hand so looking to get get done before the holiday weekend.

 

Can anyone recommend a good reliable shop for tires that won't jack up my jeep with a crappy install?

 

I live near Clinton nj, but work in bridgewater so ill drive 30-45 minutes from there

Branchburg All Tire.

3221 Hwy 22 E, Branchburg, NJ 08876

(908) 725-7373

 

they're just down the street on 22 west of milltown road. They're pretty good about matching places like discount tire and tire rack for price, especially if you're getting road hazard on the tires. I've used them for almost 15 years now and have bough numerous sets of tires from them (5 by my count at this point) along with other work. Supposedly they do vehicle pick up and delivery as well. If you speak to mike or ray tell them John "Mr. Triple Tread" sent you. :D

This. I've been getting my tires from them for over a decade now.

 

Yup.  This.    Find the tire you want and find an installer.

 

The only thing I will suggest is that you call the installer and sometimes they have the tires on hand and you can save the shipping.

Tirerack.com

 

Buy your tires and have them shipped to one of their authorized installers. They usually charge $15/tire to install. Warranty is handled through the installer, if needed.

I like Tirerack too. I have them shipped to me then I take them to my local guy. Mounted, balanced, installed, old tire recycled... $20/tire.

you know you can have them shipped directly to your local shop. i have a couple customers that get theirs shipped to me. i call em when they come in, and they drop off the car for the work.

That's exactly what I do. It's the only way I'll buy tires anymore!!

For Tirerack, i had them shipped to my local pep Boys. Worked out great. Minimal charges to mount em at Pep Boys.

 

Also used Sams Club. Decent all around. Plus they'll fix flats and have a good replacement deal built in.

 

I brought a tire from my new truck there. Had a flat. They fixed the tire that came from Toyota on a truck they never service. I think just because i bought a set of tires there for our Ford.

 

So Sams club also a decent choice.

Thanks guys for all the info on tiretrack ! I've never heard of them. I use Barneys in Lakewood. They are reasonably priced and do excellent work.

gotta be careful with places like that. first and formost.....you ever seen tires with weights approx. 180 out from each other? 'cause i have. i've also seen em with a weight at say....12oclock......and one at 4 and one at 8. kinda stupid. always find out they came from those kinds of places.

 

 the other......make sure they torqued your wheels properly. whenever i get a tire that my gun struggles to remove the lugs.......without fail, it was at one of those kinds of places.........

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
