i drop my car off at the dealership earlier today and they first quoted me $105 for mount and balance, 20 min later i recieve a phone call saying, they would need to use SPECIAL equipment to m&b my rims since it got 2.5 inch lip on the rear. The special equipment they are going to use will cost me $500, i can't believe that and just decide to take my car to a regular tired shop. I end up paying 250 to take out the tpms on the oem rims and put it on the new one and m&b both rims. You guys that have paid under 150 are lucky.

$110 to take of wheels, take out TPMS, put in new wheels and new tires on wheels and mount at Lexus. Toyota wanted $165. Big O Tires said TPMS are too fragile and to take it to the dealer. ---I respect honesty when they can't do something or it's too risky.

$40 to remove the tpms off my stock wheels/tires and put them in a new set of stock wheels/tires. I watched them do the whole thing. Took them less than 30 mins. They don't have to unmount the tires to remove the tpms. They just de-flated it and popped it out from the side. Same goes when putting in the tpms.
