Shop that can provide Tire shaving Services? Subaru owner. So I'm a Subaru owner like many of you. Last year I had a flat on my winter tires that ruin the tire it was replaced by Costco warranty. Come around this time of year trying to get my winter tires put on and nobody will do it. The new tire tread is too high in comparison to the three other tires. Subarus have a high tolerance for tread size. No shop will do it due to liability reasons that I found.
An old-timer I know told me that drops used to do tire shaving. It was common with race cars. I can't find a shop that will shave tires via Google. Does anybody know of a shop in the Seattle or greater Tacoma area that would do such a service?
It just seems completely unnecessary to buy a full set of tires when I was able to get one replaced through warranty.

Yeah, unfortunately, with awd cars, you need to replace all the tires, when you replace one, unless they are all pretty new. I suggest Tire Rack. Now I’ve had Group 2 put my tires on in the past, and they are familiar with sporty cars, so you could ask them. https://www.g2 motorsports.com/
Trying to find somebody on the Kitsap Peninsula that can do an alignment on the Mini. I'll take it to Seattle if I have to though. Want this done right.
