Default Recommendation for Tire installation / Mounting shop in SF Bay Area?

Title says it all: I need to install new tires that I buy from tire-rack or the shop itself. Any recommendations? How about the regular "America's tire Co."? Do they take care of your rims? And how about dealers, how much do they charge for installation?

DEVEK.net in redwood city. you can have the tires drop shipped there. they have a touchless tire mounter. if you track it, you can have them put in some high temp aluminum tape on the wheel weights. hell, do it regardless as a precaution.

Devek is charging me $165 for the install

Custom Alignment-Balance ... $150

and regular mounting shops ... about $90-$100

I think I'm going to go with Devek. Peace of mind for a little more money.

Thanks for the replies
