    When purchasing wheels and tires from the internet (tirerack), is it wise to have them mount and balance the tire for you or should you have it done loca?. Just wondering b/c many posts that I have read the person is having them mounted at a local shop.

    Find a local place that will give you lifetime balance & tire rotation

    If you want to use your TPMS you will have to have them mounted locally...they dismount your stock tires, take the TPMS out and place them in the new rims.
