I have been looking for a tire groover here recently and was wanting some input from the people out there who have bought their own. I'm looking for one that is low cost because I won't be using it very much. After looking around, the cheapest I can find is about 65-70$ mark.

Have many of you guy used the low end groovers??

Where are you buying the tire groovers at?


Crazy enough I have seen videos or people using chain saws, wood chisels, 4" grinders..etc

Besides an tire groover what else works good??
 
yo dude go borrow a wood router from someone if you can or buy one and that works waayyyyy quicker than a groover, and you can change bit sizes and stuff, only downflaw is that its very messy but heres my 38 tsls done with router only 3hrs for all 4 if i stayed on it the whole time. ohh and i went back and added grooves through every other big lug too. they work soooo awesome now.

i bought one for like 70 bucks as a kit with two heads and two packs of blades. look on amazon or just google it.. i think mine came off a racing site cant remember but i just looked for a kit and ordered it works great.

I've got the same $70 groover with a few different heads. Buy a lot of beer, let the tires warm up in the sun first and get to it. Even better if you have friends that like to help.
 
I picked one up from southwest super shop. Works like a dream, but it does take some time!
