I ordered a set of Maxxis Bighorns that should be delivered any day. I went with the stock size so I wouldn't have to get new wheels. Does anyone know where I can get the stock tires removed and the bighorns put on? Preferably in southeastern PA. Thanks

walmart is probably the cheapest. I think it is 5 bucks a tire.

Thanks Ben. I'll check with the walmart around here and see if they do it.

You are going to love the bighorns

 

[Springer Rage]

I hope so. Thanks Rooter. I am still having second thoughts about sticking with the 25".

Stock Bighorns are about an inch bigger than normal

Guys, the Walmarts around here don't do it apparently. I called the dealer and they told me it would cost $120 to put the tires on and that seems too high. Anyone know of a Walmart in Southeastern PA that installs tires?

Make sure it is a Super Walmart with a tire and lube express. They should do it for $5.00 a tire. Call their 800-walmart customer service number!

Also when you mount Bighorns make sure the little yellow dot (circle) is aligned with the tire valve.

$120? Are you sure they understood you allready have the tires? I would have been fummin when they quoted that price.

I kind of was. I won't buy my next atv there for a couple reasons. They told me it was a 2 hr job but they would only bill me for an hour and a half (at $80 an hour). What a bargain! I could do it in 15 minutes if I had the tools.

Last night I tried to do one myself. I couldn't break the bead on the one side despite running it over with my truck. I might buy a $50 tire changer from harbor freight or see if I can get a auto tire shop to help.

 

[bigben]

I was going to suggest that. if you got the time and desire just change em yourself. the bead breaker is needed. I used a buddys and had mine changed out in a hour or so.

try the Walmart in Exton, they have a tire center

 

[Springer Rage]

Thanks guys. FJP, that is a good suggestion for the future. I ended up taking them to a friends who is a mechanic and he had them changed up in 5 minutes. I don't know why I didn't think about a regular auto mechanic.
