Default Where to get new wheels mounted.

So I need to get my new powdercoated wheels mounted. Any suggestions on where to take them. I need a shop to do a good job and don't want any scratches. Where did you all go for your rims and how was the price?

Parts guy at Meyer Honda said not to use them and to take it the O'Fallon BMW dealer because they would do a good job but they want $60 each to mount and balance.

Thanks.

Actually they are AP2 V2 wheels powdercoated gunmetal. But they are made by Enkie.

I'm hoping they look good on the yellew S.

I had my OEM powder coated. My advice is to take them to a shop that specializes in aftermarket wheels. The have padding on their mounting machines and will take the care not to scratch where the rim and tire meet.
