i would call around your local shops.. when i had asked about this, they didnt mind dismounting the tires from the wheels, but they wanted to charge me $20 each tire to remount.

I tried to have my tires flipped due to uneven wear, but they wanted to charge me $20 a tire. So it sounds like that is the going rate.

Tire Factory around here said $10 per tire to unmount old and mount new tires if I bought them from somewhere else. They said they'd install the TPMS for free since it's basically just screwing them in.

$20 per sounds a bit high.

usually about 10-15 per tire

take tire off wheel. take out TPMS.

reinstall tire to wheel, in stall back on car

don't they also have to rebalance the wheel+tire before installing it back onto the car?

its probably needed since the wheel weight after remounted maybe different from the way it was originally mounted on the wheel.
