$80 is the going rate at my local indy. He'll do it or $40 though if I bring the wheels and tires in already removed from the car, which I usually do.

$15/ea = $60/set. If I need new valve stems they are a buck a piece for metal ones.

$10 a wheel on loose 15s to dismount, flip, remount and balance. $15 to mount new, balance and dispose of old at a local tire shop. Did good work every time too. Now free, in house.

$35 per. A little more than other shops in town, but balance has always been bang on and no marks on the wheels.
