3D TIRE COMPANY
(407) 875-3399
419 Kennedy Blvd, Orlando, FL 32810

They are down the street from Lokey Infiniti.
This is where Chuck, Sean, Shermie and I went to get our tires mounted on our wheels. They didn't a pretty good job with my volks, no sratches or nicks when they mounted the tires on my TE37's. If you are planning on taking the Z there though, I would advise against it as there drive way is a very steep inclined. Take your truck instead...

I used to recommend 3D Tire, but Mario, the guy that cared about stuff, isn't there anymore and the Hispanic guy that does it now isn't as careful. He forgot to tighten the lug nots on Jason's car, which caused a wobble and bent the rim.

So if you do take your rims there, keep an eye on him to make sure he reverse mounts them.

Go to 3D, but ask for Donovan. He's the owner-really cool guy. Tell him you'd like him to personally work on your car. Don't let the hispanic guy touch it, he stripped my lug. When I went back, Donavan did it himself and did a great job. They moved to a new location not long ago and have the new equipment that doesn't really touch the rim. Donovan took really good care using cloths on any point that did touch.
