Howdy folks,

Does anyone have any positive experience getting rims mounted and tires fixed somewhere between Framingham and Boston? I need a screw puncture plugged, but I'm really worried about an incompetent employee screwing up the job, either with the plug or getting the tire on/off.

Any info would help - thanks a lot!

I have used Autobahn Automotive to mount my snows and will proably use them again in the spring with my new rims - I don't know if they will fix a tire but would guess not.

The have a machine that will accomodate larger wheels - charged $20 a wheel to put on the tires and did not scratch the rims.

They have also done some work on my engine and i have had no problem with them...

Be careful - make sure you ask if they can handle your rim size. Ask ten times - my father in law had a bad experience where another shop in Acton said no problem on his 540is and basically wrecked all four wheels. You would think they would have realized it after the first one?
