i can not say the same for wheel works, but you can trust americas tire company. ive worked with the company on and off since 2004, and weve(at least at my store(s)) mounted plenty of volks, jlines, works, asanti wheelsetc etc on different cars, and we get cars like ferraris and bentleys all the time. when dealing with high end wheels/vehicles(we/they know what high end wheels are), we take extra precautions, and extra care with the wheels when mounting etc etc. so you really dont need to worry.

So I got my tires flipped at Larrys and they did a fantastic job. Ernesto had me bring the car in right when I got there and got started right away. He was very knowledgeable about tires and rims. He told me about the bubbling inside one of my tires and made sure that I was aware of the danger in driving with tires like that. I chopped it up with Sal for a little bit and got some price quotes from him for tires. Overall it was a great experience and would definitely recommend it to everyone. They also, do brakes and alignments there too and have great pricing.

Moot point, since they don't offer the service of flipping tires, anyway.

We can and do flip tires, the labor is it same as mounting and balancing a new tire ($19 per wheel).

Hmmm for 19 bucks, I might have to hit up Beshoff when I find a replacement tire for my bubbled tire.
