Wide tire problem in northern NJ

My 4s takes 305's for the rears, but my mechanic's mounting machine can't handle tires that wide. I want to go through TireRack for the replacements so I don't think the dealership will want to mount tires I bought elsewhere.

Anyone know of a shop that can handle mounting wide tires in New Jersey?

Why not just find another tirerack installer? Use the locator on their website...

BTW, some dealers do work w/ tirerack so you should ask.

Good luck

Thanks!

Big help. Researched on TireRack then contacted Shade Tree in Morristown and they can handle those tires.

If you're in the Lodi area check out Action Tire on Rt 46 east. They can definitely handle it.

Or if you're north in Bergen Cty...check out Precision Tire on Rt 17 South.
