Swapping tires and alignment....

Hey guys,

Just curious....where do you guys usually go to swap your tires (those who swap their summer tires back onto the original rims and take the existing winter tires off). Also, do you guys do an alignment every time you do this? So far, Erin Mills Mazda gave me a decent quote of approx $200 (tax in) to do the whole job (swap + alignment). What do u guys think? Also, for all you Mississaugans, what do u think of Tires23 and their service?

God bless you guys!

Ben.

You don't need an alignment when u swap tires!

And I' dont recommend anyone going to tires23 anymore..

their service is going downhill.....

I personally used to go there....not anymore, their prices are higher then other people now....and their service is not as good as it used to be..

goto simply tire if you want to do nething..

That is what I will be recommending from now on to everyone.

The service manager says to do it once a year....now what do you guys think....how often is an alignment necessary?

Did my last Tuesday and they look amazing... Car drives different on summers...

Dealer in Oakville did mine. Why don't you just buy winter rims then you only pay $15 to do the swap.
