    Default Any Dealers installing Car Tires

    .... Anybody know of an INDIANA Dealer or Tire Shop that will install 'NON-OEM Tires on Spyders? I thought that I found one but then they changed their mind. .... .......

    Good luck, it's like finding gold if you find a dealer that does.

    Be warned, any dealer or tire fitter that gets named on the public pages of the Forum as being a place that will fit tires other than OE Spec Kendas to your Spyder/Ryker is very likely to cease doing that soon after!

    So if you know of someone who will fit 'real' tires instead of the OE spec Kendas &/or their clones,
    PLEASE, DO NOT tell the whole world!

    Sure, share the info if you like, but Please do it via PM! . That way, they might still be fitting better quality tires when you need your next a/mkt tire/s fitted.... but if you tell the World via the public pages, chances are they won't do it for much longer!

    Front tires are no problem because it's easy to put the front on jack stands and remove the wheels, take them to any tire shop and replace. Usually tire shops want to confirm the vehicle they are being put on. A good response is "my custom dune buggy" or something like that..... The last set I replaced was done at the Costco tire department. It was a non-issue because the tire was manufactured for the rim it was being mounted on. Good luck..... Jim

    If you can do carry-in, I've found most Walmarts will if you set it up with the tech before hand and get there just as they open on your day.

    I've learned long ago not to ask questions you may not want to know the answer to. Some, actually a lot, of people don't know when to remain silent.
