New shoes - WA interior - recommendation for tire install?

Can anyone recommend a decent tire install shop in WA in the interior?
Oroville/Tonasket/Omak/Okanagon/Brewster?

Need to install new shoes, and don't want have an inexperienced shop learn on my 295-30/18's!

Know any 6speeders that live in this region?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Duane

For instance, one tire shop that comes up in the above search has a picture of an earthmover

Doesn't instill confidence.

Yep, I did a quick Google, but just wanted to see if anyone recommended a shop.

But thanks for the Google.

I dont think there would be many tire shops over there since those areas are so small. Why dont you go to like Abbotsford area?

Not likely you'll find a shop in that area. If you haven't bought the tires yet, you have a number of options. Find a recommended shop in the area and have your tires dropped shipped to that installer. Make an appointment with the shop and drive in and have them mount your tires.

Check out the Tire Racks' web site for recommended installers. You may get lucky and find one close by. My guess the Spokane area would yield the most choices.
