New Rims - Same Tires?

[FellowM3]

How much are you guys (esp for 35's) paying to swap your tires on new rims?

Looking to swap the rims on my raptor and never dealt with anything this large (37's).

I'm assuming I can't just go to any tire shop and should be going to a 4x4 shop to swap right?

I usually do tire swaps myself in my driveway. Costs me a 2-3 hours, several beers, and usually a healthy dose of swearing.

But to answer your other question, any tire shop should be able to do it. You really only need to go to 4x4 shops if you are installing bead lock rings. That said, if you go to a 4x4 shop you can be fairly confident they have the equipment necessary to handle larger wheel sizes. Depending on what tire machine they have, some of the “normal” shop may not be able to mount wheels that large.

Discount Tire can easily do 37’s. No reason to go to a “specialty shop” for something you can get at Discount and get their warranty on.

Would discount tire swap my tires on my car now to new rims?

I ask because a lot of tire shops won't touch tires unless they're new with sticker on them (BS I know..)

If you have a Discount Tire store near they will swap out tires as long as they are properly load rated for your vehicle as well as being safe to install on your Bronco.

Any tire shop can handle that swap. Find a place that has road force balancing if you can. Going rate here for a 5 tire swap is in the in $125-150 range. Almost any shop around here will mount used tires as long as you know they are not warranting them for any issue.
