Where to get new wheels mounted?

Suggestions on where to get some new wheels mounted in the bellevue/redmond area?

Or should I just hit up firestone or something? thanks.

18x9.5 I still have my 245 stock advans with only 3k miles on them that i'm told would fit with some stretch. I'm still on the fence on if that's the way i want to go, but then again it would be a shame to not use them.

I'm bound to make a dumb mistake here or there with this, i've never bought aftermarket rims for any of my cars before now.

thanks demon, I got in contact with them. I would prefer to go somewhere near redmond so this works out good.

I went to Americas Tire. Yes 245's will fit on a 9.5 wheel, no problem.

True Line is in Bellevue. Don't go to a generic tire shop, see a specialist. Even more so if you plan on tracking the little fellow.

While we're on the topic of wheels and tires, do any of those shops do wheel refinishing/repair? I have curb damage on all my wheels and would like them re-done. Also anywhere on the Eastside would be best.
