To keep from scratching the wheels try mounting the tires yourself. I took two tire spoons and covered the ends of them with black electrical tape. I laid the wheel on a blanket on my garage floor. I used soapy water to lubricate the tire and worked it around the rim with the spoons.
It was surprising easy. I spent about 10 minutes mounting 5 tires.. No scratches..
