Price for tire mounting

Discount tire wants $200 to mount four new Toyos on my new Carlsson 2/6s. As I fully expected, they said they would need extra time to make sure no scuffs were left on the stainless steel lips.

Has anyone else with comparable wheels spent this much for a simple mount and balance job???? Seems like a hefty chunk of change.

The Carlsson 2/6 Brilliant Edt.s I bought with your assistance....remember...the guy who has handed Arnel Labrado his @ss a few times at Englishtown Raceway Park.

BTW - found a high end tire and wheel joint who actually beat Discount Tire's price by $30 and did an excellent job (no a single scuff mark).
