Default I hope you're wrong...
As much as I would like a new set of wheels, I wouldn't want to deal with the trouble of forcing them to buy me new wheels after they've spent ~$500 on refinishing them. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the best.

Default Merchant Tires off rockville messed up my trannie...
future reference....i'm staying away from all chain tire/wheel shops. Too many fcukin idiots/high school drop-outs work at the place and dont give crap bout your car.

Take it to PRO-IMPORT for future wheel/mount/balance

Default not sure how safe when unmounting them but Curry's installed mine clean
I'm sure it would be the same way when unmounting them.

I only get my tires installed at Radial Tire. However, I mount them myself.
