Owentt Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Hey anyone know a place around Boston that can/will shave a new tire down to match my other 3 great tires? Please Thanks! Trying to drive home for XMAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTTuner Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Thats going to be a tough one. Try Sullivan Tire, they may at least can direct you to someone. Drive safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preachers Sheets Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Wat's the worst that can happen if the threads on all of them dont match? Does it mess up the AWD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I know a place in NY I used for shaving. If you're in a pinch I'd say mount it in front and you'll be okay. Front diff is open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owentt Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 New tire mounted in the front today This seems like an easy thing to do if you had the right equipment. Why do more places not offer this? I guess we will see what happens. If anyone knows post it up... Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTlegacy06 Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 So it forces you to buy 4 new tires.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowphun Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 I don't know of any place that will shave anything but new R compounds. If someone knows of a place that will do street tires, please post it up. Used tires? Forgetaboutit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
