Places to get new rim mounted and balanced
Now that I have my new rim here I can get it mounted and balanced and ship the other one back, but I've encountered another problem: No place wants to do the mounting and balancing for the rim.
I've called Mavis, Goodyear, and Mr. Tire. None of them will touch 20in powder coated rims.
I doubt Ford will do them since they aren't OEM but I will give them a call if it comes to that.
For those out there with 20s can you offer me any advice?
Thanks

There has to be a shop that makes their living selling big rims near you... that's who I have do mine. They deal in high end wheels on high end cars so they are should be pretty careful with your stuff.
Maybe hit up a regional forum and ask around.

Go on Tire rack and look for their preferred installers around your zip code. They should give you plenty of places to call. I know around me I have about 20 different shops in a 15 mile radius.

All done thank god
They did a DECENT job. Small scratch around same location as the last one from the mounting, but not NEARLY as bad. More of a rash type mark than a deep scratch, and about 1/2 inch as opposed to 4. I had to really search for this one.
Decided to just buy some touch up from eBay GM NG 522 for $6 because OCD.
I'll put some pictures up in the photo thread in a week or so. Supposed to rain here tomorrow unfortunately.
