    Anyone else have a recommendation?

    Do you already own the tires and just need them installed or do you need to buy them as well?

    Are you a Costco member?

    I'm planning to buy the tires from TireRack. I'm looking for an installer who is very careful not to scratch or damage the rims, will clean off all the residue from the old weights when they are removed, and who has top-of-the line balancing equipment. I'm willing to pay whatever they charge, I'm very particular about my X3!

    Tire Rack has a list of "authorized installers" - check the options in your ZIP. I'm on the wrong side of the river to give recommendations! You might have a better result cleaning off the old weights, tape & residue yourself. Check the Hunter site for a shop near you with a road force balancer - http://www.hunter.com/gsp9700

    FYI - I ended up using EuroBeat Wheels in Rockville, MD. They did a great job and I highly recommend them. They charged $45/wheel to mount and balance. At my request, they even painted the wheel balancing weights to match my rims! There were several high-end cars in the shop for various types of work (they do a lot more than just wheels) when I was there.

    Thanks for circling back with your report! I hadn't heard of them. Nice to know of another powder-coater.
