Recommended tire shops?

Can anyone recommend a tire shop (preferably north of Boston) for safe (damage free) mounting of tires?

Turner Motorsports is generally well-regarded. Probably not much cheaper than a dealer, but they are generally very professional and knowledgeable.

Apparently they have touchless wheel mounting equipment:

Really dumb, since I'm sure they would mount regular tires for M cars. It must be some liability issue.

(Wish they would have mentioned it before telling me to "bring my tires in").
