LA Tire Shop to Replace my Run Flats with Non Run Flats?

Three places I went to this weekend to replace my RFTs with Non-run flats flat-out wouldn't do it.

Are there any places you guys know of who would be willing to do this?

I would look on Tire Rack's website for preferred tire mounting shops. I am sure you could find a shop to do this. Most of us have.

That is by far the craziest thing i have heard so far regarding tires, like the guy above, go to tirerack.com or call tires buy mark, there should be no problem getting same tire sizes not being runflat

Have yet to change my BMW's tires, but can recommend two shops in general.

If you live closer to DTLA or the east side, I'd go to Tire Central in San Gabriel: (626)698-1182

On the west side, I've had good luck with Globe Tire: 2450 South La Cienega Boulevard Los Angeles, CA 90034

Did they refuse to do so or did they just not have the proper tire size?

Tires Buy Mark over in West San Fernando Valley are great too. As inexpensive as getting them from Tire Rack and going to an installer.
