Question Where is the Cheapest Place to get Wheels and Tires mounted and Balanced?

I'm going to get some new tires this week, and was wondering where the cheapest place was in the South Bay.

I'm located in Fremont, so anything near by has priority.

If you guys have any good ideas please let me know.

Also do these places do aftermarket wheels?

I have some Advan RG's and they need the sticky weights.

auto innovations located in milpitas. They are like 1 block away from tapioca/q-cup in that area. I've never had them work on my car but i've heard alot of good things about them.

They also do alignments, correct? I also have set of new tires comign to me, and I would like to bring the car to a shop I can have the tires put on, balanced, and then an alignment performed.

I took my rally tires recently to Gerard's goodyear shop in Los gatos. Not really so close to Fremont, but they didn't bat an eye at my skanky rally tires, did a great tire change/balance job, and it was $60.
