Does anyone know of a good place to mount slicks on the east side preferrably? Also where to get an alignment done on a car with a full UPR front kit including CC plates? Any advice appreciated.

Thanks,

Nordi

Mach U and I got out alignment done at Bethel Alignment after our coilover installs. It was only about $38 I think and they went over every bolt. I know of someone that could mount & balance your slicks but he will be in Columbus this weekend :D

Are you referring to the alignment shop that does frame work too right on 133on the left side going out of Bethel? Who can mount them?

This is the place. http://cincinnatibellyellowpages.com/MIP/MIPBizInfo.aspx?bid=102025406

I can mount and balance them but I wouldn't be able to do it til next week. My machines are near eastgate. Are they tubeless?

+1 for Bethel Frame & Body. They have done work for several people on here as well as a great job on my Mustang after replacing my front suspension. Can't beat the price plus they went the extra mile on my car!

Thanks Bob and AJ for the info. I'll get with you to mount my slicks Bob. Not in a real hury though. They're for UMTR next year. There are tubeless, But I'd like to put tubes in them so they'll actually hold air. PM me your number and I'll get in touch.

never done a tube tire before. Not sure on how to do it but I'm willing to try anything once.

The slicks are going on Draglites. I assume they are ready for slicks. Bob, I'd appreciate you giving it a shot. I haven't got the tubes yet. Like I said before, no real hurry, just want to be ready for next season.

the draglites have enough room for the valve stem. if i remember correctly the stem will have a nut to hold it in place on the wheel.
