Costco tire install?

Hi guys - I am putting on the Michelin PS4 summers on my car from Costco - 19".

They don't have hunter road force, do you think I should be concerned or have another tire shop install or nothing to worry about with Costco doing it.

Thx in advance.

Around February, I bought the same tires from Costco as well. I had the same concerns but they ended up doing a good job (i.e. no damage to the rims).

If you're in oakville, go to burning rubber - they have a road force machine. But if costco install is included in the price, give it a try, if you have vibrations then get it balanced elsewhere.

Tough to beat Costco's price for which usually includes mount and balance.

Try to book your appointment during the weekdays, it's usually when the more experienced technicians work.

Higher chances of getting a rookie or apprentice on weekends.

Their mounting machines are not touchless, so you have to take that chance with them. I bought my 20's from Costco earlier this year, but they said they won't touch the install unless I sign a waiver. They'll just sell the tires and refund the $75 install fee if you want to take them elsewhere.

OP, where did you end up getting your tire installed? I am curious as I am planning to buy tires from COSTCO (Burlington) as well.

Thanks
