I'm originally from Jersey....I would only take my car to Body Motion in Ocean, NJ. They do the best work around.

From what I've read, you definitely want a place that uses the Hunter 9700.

My dealership had one so I went there. Too damn expensive. Need to find a cheaper place, but haven't found one local.

 

thanks for the replies....im assuming that hunter 9700 is a mounting machine...ill let you know who i use when the time comes

they're in jersey , seen some of their work , looks nice and clean... good luck

 

The Hunter 9700 is a balancing machine. Not sure if it does mounting. But its basically the best machine on the market and the most recommended. It's what all exotic car dealerships use. Aside from the machine, you still need to make sure the mechanics don't do a **** poor job of mounting by scratching the rims to hell. That's what happened at my dealership .

STAFFORD TIRE

CLIFTON, NJ 07014-1610

$25 per wheel. I need a place that can do it for less, since I'm going to be putting winter tires on the OEM wheels. $200 bucks a year is gonna kill me. Not to mention normal wear rotation.

$50 for all 4! By appointment only, so they don't take stragglers off the street. Looks promising.

 

Precision Wheel and Tire in Ridgewood, NJ is awesome. Had a lot of stuff done up there (including 4 wheel alignment on my A4 Quattro).

For Body Shops, I recommend Kind's Auto Body in Elmwood Park. It's two beats off Route 46 and Jerry is a great guy and does awesome work. Sick custom car builder, too.
