Which tire mount machine should I ask for?

I'm getting ready to have some Hankooks mounted onto my Work rims. Is anyone familiar with a tire mount machine that would have the smallest chance of damaging my rim? I can start asking shops to see who uses what. Thanks.

I'd rather not deal with that headache. Fixing it would not be acceptable, I'd want a new rim which I'm sure they wouldn't want to do etc.

Call around and ask if they do touchless mounting of tires on wheels. If they do not know what you are talking about or say no but we can mount the wheel with no problems, look else where. The places that use a touchless mounting machine are much less likely to scratch up your wheels than one that do not. Also mention specifically you are mounting low profile tires.
