Tire Mounting in New Castle, DE
Yes, we mount customer-supplied tires. Many tire shops turn away tires they didn't sell, or tack on a penalty fee for the privilege. We don't see it that way. If you find tires that fit your budget, our job is to install them right.
Here's what tire mounting includes at our New Castle shop:
- Removing your old tires and inspecting the wheels for damage or corrosion
- Checking and replacing the valve stem or TPMS sensor seal as needed
- Mounting the new tire on the wheel with proper bead lubrication and seating
- Inflating to your vehicle's recommended pressure
- Balancing each wheel before it goes back on the car
We work on most makes and models, from compact cars to full-size pickups and SUVs. If you're bringing your own tires, call us first with the tire size and your vehicle info so we can confirm fitment and have a bay ready for you.
A note on tire warranties: New tires purchased from Zee's carry the manufacturer's warranty. Tires you bring in are covered by whatever warranty came from your original seller, and used tires carry no warranty regardless of where they came from.
Tire Balancing in New Castle, DE
You don't need new tires to need balancing. If your steering wheel shimmies at 55 mph or you feel a vibration through the seat, your tires are probably out of balance. Small weight differences around a tire and wheel get amplified at highway speed, and the result is that annoying buzz.
We offer tire balancing as a standalone service. Our computerized balancer spins each wheel, pinpoints the heavy spots, and our technician applies precise weights to even things out. Balancing is worth doing when:
- You feel vibration at highway speed that gets worse as you accelerate
- You've hit a serious pothole or curb (New Castle has plenty of both)
- Your tires are wearing unevenly or in a scalloped pattern
- It's been more than 5,000 to 6,000 miles since your last balance
- You've had a tire repaired or a wheel weight has fallen off
Our waiting area has free Wi-Fi, snacks, and beverages, so it's an easy job to knock out on a lunch break or after work.
