Need tire shop recommendation in Toronto

So, anyone have a good tire shop they can recommend in the TO? I need to remount one of my OEM summer tire because it is leaking. Need a place that can work on 18" rims without scratching it to hell.

Leesha's rims are okay, go by AIM in Markham, its on Victoria and Denison, good prices, they carry a lot of the Brand Name rims and Tires too at competive prices. Thats where I got my winter wheels from, you ask Neo, my winters blow away Leesha's.

You still near to get your side aero flares on Leesha, looks empy on the side, maybe do what i did and paint the bottom half, looks a whole lot better. Any plans for the car this summer? New mods? New rims? Skirts?

I would recommend a tire shop, but I don't live in the GTA.
If someone wants to drive all the way out to Aurora for a remount, then by all means, I can suggest a place.

Leesha,
Prep the patient. Oh wait, screw the patient. Lets prep you instead.

Leesha, that is 16% all around?
the front passenger side in that pic looks lighter than the rest of the back.

i don't think its 16% all around, just the rear quarters and the back. I've got mettalic tint on mine, forgot what percent, buts its pretty nice, clear during the day, so cops cant hassle you, keeps uv out and at night its really dark, best of both worlds.

The guy at FxAuto told me to stay away from the metallic tint because it interferes with antenna?

He said I should either the regular film or the ceramic ones.

16% All around boyz...not the front...that is why it looks light. If the front was tinted then it would all be dark... Come on you guys should know this!! MY antenna...is fine...I have metallic...

16% all around but not the front?? I'm confused, let me clarify.
you mean it's

16% back
16% rear passenger side
16% rear driver side
unknown tint% front driver side
unknown tint% front passenger side
no tint on windshield (obviously)

Is this correct?
