any shop could do it, just most wont.
i can do 37's on either my little atlas changer, or manually on the old school manual changer. big tire are usually easier to mount, just suck cause of the weight.

Don's Tire in Middletown can mount these. Some of the older tire changers can't fit anything larger than a 35" tire due to the arm being on the side.

I have the Equal Balancing bags in my truck. However $33 sounds steep I think I paid $100 at TD performance for them installed (dismount my 37's and remount my 37's.) They (Equal) are good but I would recommend you buy Dyna Beads instead. The Equal can get into the bead and cause slow leaking. Where as Dyna Beads do not.
What ever you choose they will make those tire very smooth on the road.

My 35" KM2's are on 15x8 Steel Soft 8's dynamic balanced with no problems at all. I can run 70+ with my Aussie 4.88/8.8 set up with no vibes at all. I can see using pellets/Equal on larger tires or beadlocks otherwise its a waste to me. I balance **** up to 22-24.5's on Semi's/Motor Homes all day/everyday with no problems.
It really does depend on the tire/rig also. If your trying to get a set of Boggers balanced your wasting your time but a KM2 or MTZ no problem.
FYI....TD Peformance= Tire Discounters. I'm at the Lawrenceburg Store.

I have found Myers Tire Supply in Reading sells Equal really cheap I think I paid $10 per bag for the my 35" Super Swampers. They balanced out great.

Thats messed up. They specialize in lifts,performance mods etc. Thats the store TD sends off the wall needs like that....lol I can't believe they blew you off, Amazing :(
Oh well.....FYI for anyone needing things of this nature we can do it at our store in Lawrenceburg also. Ask for Joe, If my TJ is in the lot I'm there.
