Why can’t your Chevy dealership do it? I had 295 and 305s mounted. 25per tire

If a shop has a reasonably modern Hunter touchless mounting machine, they should be able to mount low profile tires.

I rolled a flat in to *major* auto repair shop in my area and they couldn't do a 305/30/20 which baffled me as 20 and up isn't uncommon these days. That 20 shops told you no sounds fishy.

Not every shop can mount a 305, but from my experience, Discount/American Tire can.

Any Bridgestone/Firestone store can. They sell that size and larger. That also includes Bridgestone corporate stores (Tires Plus).


Just make sure that specific location has a Hunter Touchless machine. Almost all of them do now.

i ended up finding a spot, and ofcourse with my luck, my girlfriend dropped my new wheel! scuffed on 2 spots but im hoping it can be repaired without having to dismount the tire..

It’s your fault for letting her carry it in the first place.

So your gf lied to you and the shop. Made them go through footage ad prove it was her.

Bro you curb rashed it. It's ok we all get one.

Not sure if youre joking around but she didnt lie, she genuinely believed it wasnt her fault, it happened during the transaction of the wheel, she wanted to help take the wheels out of the car and I let her. and the 2 scuffs are on opposite ends lol couldn't even curb rash it in this way if i tried
