Default Tires Mounted...

I'll be needing a place to get tires mounted on my new wheels anyone know a reliable place I can get them mounted without the installer damaging my wheels?

The rears will be 30 series and I know those are difficult to get on but I've seen it done correctly with no damages to the wheel.

Recommendations anyone? Preferably in Tucson (I know there isn't a lot of you guys on here) but if I need to I'll make the trip to Phoenix.

Appreciate it...

Dude...
I dunno.
It seems that no matter where I go to have someone else work on my stuff that they just don't put in the effort and care that I'd do if I had the resources.
Discount Tire has always been good to me. Even though the store is a chain, they have always done me right ... even with my S rims and tires.
I've gone to a so-called "exclusive" and specific, high-end, and high-dollar, shop - thinking that they would give my S special care...but they didn't. The high-dollar shop bent my hub rings and scratched my rims. So much for the special treatment!
I'd say go to Discount Tire. You'll get a great service team and your rims and tires will be treated with greatest respect.
Discount Tire has NEVER hosed my rims or tires.

I have a friend that works at Firestone. He's going to install my BFG KDw Nt's on my new Works when they get in. They are 35 rear and 40 in front. If you need to come down here I'll let him know to take care of you.

Hey I'm pretty sure Earnhardt's does tire mounting/balancing too. It's a hike from Tucson but at least you know Cesar is doing you right.

Never go to Bridgestone. They will drop your wheels and then try to tell you that the little pits in them from landing on the concrete are due to "corrosion". I really want to throw a tire through their window.

Yes they will take care of you also. Jon is a great guy and be on their ass to make sure they don't mess your wheels up. They deal with wheels that cost as much as a civic!!
