Default Mounting tires

Anyone know of any shops that would mount used tires on some 18's? Nothing crazy, no stretching or anything I just need tires mounted and balanced. As some of you may know I'm new to Cali so today I went to Just Tires and Firestone but both of them told me they would not mount used or outside tires. Weird because every shop in MN would do it, money's money right? I did a quick search on here and most threads that came up were for stretching tires only. I just need a quick service place that's close by. I work in City of Industry of anything near there would be perfect. Let me know guys because it sucks being new to a place and not knowing where to go to get certain things done.

I just googled them quick and it's the one in San Gabriel right? That's pretty far from me there's a gotta be a closer place right? Any rough idea on what a mount and balance would run per wheel? What's the going rate for this service in our area anyways?

Walmart would do it? Wow I just assumed since the big chains wouldn't do it most others wouldn't. Shouldn't every tire shop be able to mount 18's since that's the factory size for most cars now. Where do people on this forum go?

Thanks guys but those places are kind of far though. There's no places local to City Of Industry? There's so many auto suppliers in this area I would think there would be at least 1. Where do people who live in Rowland Heights go?

Type your work zip code in google maps. Then type "tires". Find the closest mexican tire shop. There should be a few on valley.
