specialized tire install in alexandria area

Golddots · 03-16-2014, 08:14 AM

I searched this board and it seems rrt , Curry's and BMW Alexandria would work for me.
Would they be able to install the equivalent of a low profile run flat?
I work at a shop and I can install my factory size PSS and pilot as3 on my 220m. I was NOT able to do the install on my 265/30-19 yko ad08r. I have 275/30-19 for the rear. I was told a more specialized machine was needed.
Would BMW Alexandria be able to do this? I doubt a service advisor would tell me over the phone let alone know the make/ model of their tire machine. I am very attracted to having a loaner since I don't have much free time.
I have an autocross in a week and in not sure the pilot as3 on my car will be up to the task.

Thanks.

expect RRT to definitely be able to (sure they could quickly tell you over the phone)...not that I know much about the specifics but they have pretty impressive shop/equipment. if you made appt shouldn't take too long.

currys prob could...no idea about bmw of alexandria and not sure they would def give you loaner for this either.

Thanks for the replies. I'll check out RRT if I can't find anyone closer.
