Depends where you are - I know a place in Lincoln that specialise in alloys and stretching tyres etc. It's were I took my BBS wheels for tyres.

In the Midlands. Does anyone know any decent place? I thought of protecting the inside lip with some paper tape where those metallic clamps touch the alloy when fitting the tyre then take the tape of before balancing the wheel. I'm really paranoid about scratching black diamond cut wheels after reading so many shocking stories around here and DW.
