I just paid $46.00 for two tires mounted and balanced at America's Tire center. It was $8.00 for the mount and $15.00 for the balance. I didnt' shop around, so I have no idea if it's good or bad. Didn't seem terribly expensive for the bay area.

Call around and get prices. Alot of small shops don't charge as much as the bigger shops.

Just paid $30 total for mounting and balancing two tires - at a small independent shop. I didn't think that was too bad.

$40 - $60 for 4 tire mount and balance seems to be about the right ball park. IN PA it is a bit more if you are having the shop dispose of your old rubber.
