In the Edmonton area, who has paid what lately to get tires swapped over. I need to swap tires from my old quad to the new one and dont feel like doing it myself this time. If it was regular tires that is easy enough but the silverbacks I have were a bitch to mount. I know rapid used to be cheaper when tires where bought from them but not sure what they would charge me now. Need this done ASAP.

I pay $15 a tire at kaltire to take a tire off the rim clean the rim and the bead and put it back on, so I can't see it being any more than $60 + tax. I usually take it there because they can usually get it done within the hour where as at RPM or any dealership here in Whitecourt they are usually busy with other projects and can't get it done that day

I think I would have what is considered 8 tires then. Last time I had it done it cost me 80 and was a huge cluster fawk. Since then I have been doing them myself but really really dont want to do those silverbacks.

With all the toys and vehicles you have I think you should buy you're own tire machine. I would help you use it once in a while too.

Can't help with Edmonton but casterland in Calgary is $10 a corner. They will remove old tire and install new one

Fountain Tire in Westlock charges me $10 a tire to flip them on a quad. I am sure if you won't drive to there something in St Albert would be comparable.

Cost me 20 to do one at Kaltire on the yellowhead but that might be I only had one. Got new Mudbugs at Rapid and they are gonna change them for me as part of the price.

I think I will be calling rapid and martin tomorrow. Drop off the quads and get it done. Whoever is cheaper and quicker. Martin would be the better choice as I could get them to change the previous owners name out of the display and get me another key for it.
