Northern Colorado tire shop recommendations

[majorfriend]

Looking for tire shop recommendations in northern Colorado. Can I trust the Discount Tires? Any specific store someone has had good experiences at?

I'm mostly concerned about them using the pucks, should I bring my home?

Side note, anyone had look putting together their own full size spare kit for an R1T?

I am in Longmont and have used Discount Tire since I’ve have the truck (Sept 2022). They have the pucks and have had zero issues.

Not sure where you are in northern Colorado, but I used the Discount Tire on the western slope. Was a bit hesitant at first, but they did a fantastic job and have lots of experience with Rivians. Road force balanced my wheels way better than from the factory and even reprogrammed the tire configurator for me after swapping to the Goodyear Territory's.

Yeah, Discount Tire’s fine if you bring your own pucks. Some techs know better, others don’t. Hand them over clearly marked, don’t assume.

Loveland’s better than Fort Collins.

R1T spare kit: doable. OE rim, 35" tire, scissor jack, TPMS. Mount in bed or get creative. Skip the inflator kit unless you like walking

I used Discount Tire in Loveland and all went well. They were even able to work around the rock sliders we have installed.

Boulder and northern Thornton (near Costco) DTs are both good. Boulder gets a lot of R1s so they’re especially used to working on them. Zero issues with either DT and good service all around.

Has anyone used any of the metro area DTs and had a good experience? The one on east Colfax is closest but willing to drive in order to ensure a smooth experience. The SC says they’ll only install the OEM pirellis. Thanks.

Discount Tire in Denver has done right by me.

I feel confident in any Discount Tire that is close to where LOTS of Rivian's live. The individual tech's have all worked on them.

I'd be slightly cautious if I was in the middle of nowhere and this was the first Rivian the shop had seen.
