Who does a professional job (installing wheels & tires?)
Who does a professional job?
I know this is sort of trivial for some, but can you guys suggest a good shop to put on wheels and tires? I want to go to shop who will do a great job, not some cheap tire shop. Thanks!

thats a great idea...especially if you have good rims and u dont want those hammered on weights, some people jsut dont know how to take care of another person's car..or property for that matter. i know how u feel
I am in SF South Bay but I don't mind travelling to get it done right. I am an expat and don't own out here (Yeesh! the crazy prices) so I can't do the job in my apt. complex parking lot. Thanks for all the replies! Keep them coming!

I work at america's tire co, and if you have some really nice wheels, with some very low profile tires (probably less than a 40 profile) don't come here. We've screwed up plenty of wheels just scratching the small parts of the lip trying to put those tires on (I've worked at both Walnut Creek and Dublin) Though, for anything 40+ profile they're not that hard to put on, and we don't use clip weights for nice wheels. Though no matter where you go, always request tape weights , because if you have a lip that can use clip weights, then they might use them.

I thought he was no longer around? I last read that he moved back to HK? Am I right?
