Well the time it took you to type that out you could have called up a local tyre shop and got a price.
I'm guessing $10 a tyre change over.
Who else wants to guess.

i got my local garage to pull 4 tires off and clean them up and put the tires back on the rims, plus all new valves for 40 dollars,should be the same for swaping rims. i just used my originals should be roughly around 10 to 15 dollars per tyre

Was $20/tyre fitted and balanced here in Perth when I got mine done about 6 months back. Pay the extra for balancing - better ride quality and less wear.

I was just thinking about $20 per tyre, so budget $80 to $100, depending on 4 or 5 tyres to change :wink: :D
