you need to find a shop with one of these....

i highly doubt those shops mentioned will have any, but theres a slim chance a performance shop would. shaving NEW tires can improve tire performance, but who the heck does that in HI?? lol

And I'll make sure your current rims have a good home while you have walters.

Just find a friend with a big power 2WD car and have them do a burnout on your tires until you're at the right depth
