the prices mentioned in this thread are crazy... the Ford dealership I previously worked at charged $60 to mount and balance 4 new tires and dispose of the old ones (fun fact - that doesn't cost the dealership anything at all, some Mexican guy with an old Toyota pickup comes and takes them) no matter the size, clip or tape weight, whatever. I thought that was about average.

How long ago was that? The only reason I ask is because things have changed A LOT thanks to the EPA. Places I used to be able to get 5 gallon buckets of wheel weights from no longer can give them to me. I shoot competitively and reload, and melting the lead and casting my own rounds was cheap and easy, but Im afraid its a bygone at this point.

I left there in June of this year. as far as I know the prices haven't changed but I now work at a Honda dealership and I honestly haven't even looked into any of their prices because I guess I have no reason to know it lol
