How much wine is it too use your tire machine and balancer...  and will it do new style rims, like maybe a 22" x 11"..  if they are that wide in that size.

This garage is not for the Scotts in the club, although he could hire a mechanic for $36.00, but for people that might want to look under the car, do a oil change, or other little things that they can't do at home or if Scott goes out of town...
