Wide azz rims


OK, got 2 new tires for the rear and now I can't get the tires mounted!
Anyone experienced this problem and where did you go to get them mounted.
Rims too wide for the tire machine.

Go to a new tire place then. The machine we use at school can put a tire on a rim just about any shape, or size.

Try aftermarket wheel shops. Sometimes chains and dealerships can not do anything wide.

Any tire shop worth a damn shouldn't have a problem mounting a tire on just about any wheel that will go on a Mustang.

If they cant mount some tires on certain rims they need to either get a new machine or specialize in something else.

Hell. I can't do it. That is why I specialize in something else. Maybe they should learn my techniques.
