What's Included

What most shops include — confirm on the shop's profile

  • On-rim swap or off-rim mounting as selected
  • Pressure and torque procedures stated by the shop
  • Balancing only where included or selected

Halifax Climate Note: Atlantic nor'easters bring wet, heavy slush that causes severe traction loss on un-siped all-season tires.

Expert Care Tip

Book your winter changeover by mid-October; coastal weather turns quickly and shop backlogs grow exponentially after the first nor'easter.
