I haven't been able to find a place that will beat walmart's price of $25 for mounting/balancing/new valvestems for 2 tires. Disposal of the old ones is only a few bucks.

Try talking to Joe at Hiller Derrek. He did mine for me.

and no offense to the poster above, but there is no way I'm letting some guy working at walmart touch my shit...

that $25, does that include the nice stick on tape weights, or the old style hammer ons?

Its kind of a crapshoot where ever you go, you will most likely find some kid who doesn't give a crap. I actually had some 275/35/18's mounted at a walmart in menomonie where i went to college, they did a great job, not a single scratch on the polished lip. I went to tires plus in germantown and they scratched the shit out of the paint on the evo wheels. Took them to fleet farm to get the summer tires put back on and they did a pretty good job.

FYI as far as balance, if you talk to the guys at M/T they will tell ya not to even bother. Plus you have Weld rims so 99% of shops can't balance them right anyway. Had M/T put new ones at at the race last year and never balanced them and never have any issue
