Performance Shops MA RI

[BLU135i]

Ok so i need a reputable performance shop that knows what it is doing when installing wheels. I have a set of Apex EC7's waiting to be put on my car but need a place that knows what their doing. Last place told me that the wheels would not fit and refused to install. I assured them that the wheels were correctly sized and that the larger offset would make it look like they would not fit while the cars suspension was unloaded. They would not believe me. Please help!!

Town Fair Tire in Woburn has techs that are just regular car guys. I even convinced them to install front camber bolts on my evo x for a little extra cash once lol. I'd call them up and say "I'm positive they fit but the other places gave me shit, will you try it if I bring them in?".

Town fair in Woburn are a bunch of bozo's and they won't touch wheels with spacers. They fucked up a mounting job, switching my winter tires back to summer they put the 225 on the rear wheel and the 255 on the front, bunch of clowns.
If you're just putting the wheels on that have tires already any performance shop should be able to handle it.
I go to Motive auto works in Woburn, Alberto and Jason are good dudes.

I guess it depends who you get. The guy "matt" there at town fair at woburn installed my camber bolts on my evo when I was in a pinch. Charged like $10 extra too it was just him helping out.

So Monday I'm going to try Banchwerks in Providence. I'll let you all know how it goes.

Installed my rims no problem at half the cost of the other guys who refused to touch them. Love the results.

Why wouldn't they install that before lol?

The ec-7's have such an offset so that when the car is on a lift and the suspension droops the rim comes in contact with the strut and lower control arm. Three different tire places refused to install because of this. Banchwerks did it no problem.
