Default tire prices

A reminder,
Dennis Kirk will beat anyones best deal by $1.00. There regular prices are outrageous in my mind! they must hope you don't look anywhere else? CompetitionAccessories.com has what look to be good prices although I don't think shipping is included in those prices.

The one local shop where I take my wheels and tires (off the bike) charges $10.00 per wheel to mount and balance, plus wheel weights for a total of about $21.00 for both front & rear. This is regardless of you bringing your own tires or buying them from him.

The other place is $15.00 per tire plus weights for about $35 total for both front & rear.

Last but not least, the local Ducati dealer charges $75.00 for the same service. Well almost, They charge an extra $20.00 per tire if you bring your own tires. I am not against supporting the local dealer but I am against being raped. Ouch!

Call it support your dealer/dealers or lose them. I think any good buisness minded person or the majority will shop the best deal, especially in a price differential as my comparison.
