I used them several years ago. Came mounted and balanced. Easy, peasy.

35’s are definitely doable by yourself (even getting it up on the spare). There’s a small frame lady on YouTube who gets a 35 up on the spare carrier easily by herself. She explains well on how to do it. Now if only I remember where I found that video…

Thanks.
Meant mounting. Balancing and installing.

Yes, I've used them 3 times in the last year. Ordered my tires through tire rack, they sent them to the installer, made my appointment and walla. They show up mount and balance new tires and reinstall. Each time I had a different person, but each time they were very careful and clean installing. Actually used a torq wrench to properly torque lug nuts to spec. Very pleased.

I use a service for my two Audis. Buy tires from Tire Rack, and they come install them. I use them to swap winters/summers as well. Incredibly convenient.

I haven’t asked them if they can do tires of that size (35”) out of their vans though. The equipment wouldn’t be the problem. The space in the vans might be.

I have them coming to put some all season tires on my BMW X3 M. I am cautiously optimistic they will do a great job. Will let you know

I have done it twice. Worked out great. They use third party installers. Sometimes those installers sell tires as well so you might get a better deal and help a small biz if you go straight through them.
