Tire Mounting & Balancing
Smooth Ride. Every Mile.
Professional mounting and precision balancing for every vehicle in SE Portland.
Why Mounting & Balancing Matters
Improperly mounted or unbalanced tires cause uneven wear, vibration, and poor handling — and they shorten the life of your tires and suspension. Our technicians use precision equipment to get every tire seated and balanced right the first time.
What's Included
Full-Service Mounting
Tire Mounting
We safely dismount your old tires and mount new ones using professional-grade equipment that protects your wheels from scratches and damage. Every tire is inspected for proper bead seating before we move on.
Wheel Balancing
Using computerized balancing machines, we identify and correct weight imbalances to within fractions of an ounce. Properly balanced wheels eliminate vibration and extend tire life significantly.
TPMS Service
We inspect and service your Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors during every mounting job — so your dashboard warning light stays off and you always know your tire pressure is right.
Valve Stem Replacement
Old or cracked valve stems are a common cause of slow leaks. We replace them as part of every mounting service to prevent future pressure loss.
The Process
Our Mounting & Balancing Process
01
Wheel Removal
We safely lift your vehicle and remove each wheel for individual attention on our mounting and balancing equipment.
02
Tire Mounting
Your new tires are mounted using a no-mar machine that protects alloy and custom wheels from any damage.
03
Computerized Balancing
Each wheel is spun on our balancing machine to detect imbalances. We add precision weights to achieve perfect balance.
04
Torque & Inspect
Wheels are reinstalled to manufacturer torque specs. We check tire pressure, TPMS, and do a final safety inspection.
