Find a Recommended Installer
just enter your zip in the upper right and it will list shops near you. Then click "select/more info" and it will list the eqiupment they use.[/QUOTE] I don't see where it shows the shops have the touchless tool. Or does every shop in the search results have the tool? Such as Goodyear?

That isn't correct from what I've seen. Those names are inputted by the shop themselves, so it can say whatever they want. You might have to do a search on the model they use to verify whether its touchless or not.

Of course you should do research, but that doesn't mean all shops are dishonest. Look at the reviews for the shop also and ask in person what machine they use before starting any work. If you have a better solution determining what machine tire shops use, feel free to share.

![]() I wasn't saying anything about a shop being "dishonest". I was just saying that some don't list that their machine is "touchless" but it actually is. It's up to the shop themselves to input that information in. So you might want to do a search on the model they use, because it might actually be touchless even though on Tirerack it doesn't indicate it as such. Chillax bro!

I kid.......I kid.... Sorry, I didn't mean anything by it. I guess it did kind of sound like I was flaming at you now that I read it back. It's not easy conveying tone in text ![]() Let me re-phrase. Do you know of any solution determining what machine tire shops use other than Tire Rack? Please feel free to share.

Well I did go back and look at my original post, and I guess I wasn't too clear.Once again, I was just stating that if TireRack doesn't list the machine as being touchless that doesn't mean it isn't. You can search the model online to try to find spec's for it to see if it is or isn't. For instance, the one shop near me that I go to, doesn't list their machine as touchless, but if I look up the spec's on it, it is indeed touchless.
