| I got my tires mounted on my iForged Classics.. I was very VERY paranoid about getting them mounted due to a few things.. The cost of the tires, cost of the wheels and especially that the rear tires are on backorder and the wheels have a 12-18 week wait to get made. I searched around looking for a shop that could handle the size of the wheels and that had alot of experience with large/wide sizes. Dee and a few others recommened Sports Car Tire located in Wilmington DE. They had porshe's, and a few ferrari's there. So I know they did large tires etc. The place looked SO run down from the outside. But in the basement they had over 15,000 wheels and tires. Can't judge a book by its cover right? I was very anal about getting the work done there but felt alot better after they saw my wheels and realized that I paid alot for them. The manangers were out there as well as the owner while these were getting mounted and balanced. It made me feel very comfortable. They asked me what these wheels were going on and I said a 300zx.. and I told them about the widebody to fit them.. They responded " ya think?" The owner said he had an SL55 AMG and that he runs pretty wide tires too.. but he has a little more power than me.. haha.. I just laughed.. (little does he know :) They asked me to bring the car back up to the shop for some pictures when I get it completed.. 
The shop is highly recommended. They did great work and were very friendly. I would definitely go there again.. Its the only place so far that I would trust mounting my tires of this size. Since my Black TT is on my lift and dirty as hell.. I layed the wheels next to my 2+2. White on black really doesn't look too bad though.. I can't wait to get my TT back on the road..
Check out that rear lip!
Can't wait to have them filled up with my BAMFBBK!! 15" rotors should fill them up nicely :) 
 NO, This picture is not photoshopped. It took many times to take this picture. Setting up the timer, shutter speed etc, then jumping on my bike and getting the tire to spin. :
