Also called: fitting and balancing
Across 21 popular vehicles
Mounting fits new tyres to the wheels; balancing adds small weights so each wheel spins without vibration. The price is normally quoted per wheel and often bundled with new tyres, and low-profile or run-flat tyres cost more because they are harder to fit without damage.
A single national average hides the thing you actually want to know, which is whether your car sits at the cheap or expensive end. Usually it is access rather than the part that moves the price: the same component can take an hour on one engine layout and most of a day on another.

About these figures. Parts and labor ranges are supplied by a licensed vehicle-data provider and reflect a sample of 21 popular vehicles as of 2026-09-17. They are estimates for comparison, not quotes. What you actually pay depends on your vehicle, your local labor rate, whether the shop fits original-equipment or aftermarket parts, and what else is found once the job starts.
