Best places in Northern NJ to mount and balance winter setup?

Hi guys,

Looking for a location in northern NJ near Paramus to mount and balance my winter setup. Would prefer a location open on the weekends due to some hectic weekdays until the end of the year.
Also hoping the shop would allow me to ship the tires directly there to facilitate the installation.
Thank you!

For better or worse, I use Firestone in Hackensack, and they always treat me well at very fair prices. They are also an authorized Tirerack installer, so no problem shipping tires there.

I have also had good experience with my Audi S4 at www.eurotechms.com in Mahwah.

Do they happen to use Hunter equipment to balance?

Following this. Also in North NJ and looking for someone to put on a winter setup.

What setup are you doing? 18 inch wheels or just putting tires on stock 19s?

I've used the Michelin alpina for years now but can't seem to find them anywhere so I guess I'll go with tire rack and the sottozero 2

Ended up using ACM as always. I wanted a place that does weekends but in the end I just took a half day off work.
