This is part of the reason I purchased a Harbor Freight tire changer, and on steel rims I do my own repairs. I would like to do more, but most everything now has aluminum rims, and the changer scars them up pretty badly. Many tire shops are simply about the profit, not pleasing the customer. The will tell you it is about the liability, and I can somewhat understand that, but what I see more is they want to sell tires, and even when purchasing new tires you have to make sure to price them out the door. I called around looking for a set for my wifes truck a few years back, and I was very glad, as they insisted on replacing no only the valve stems, pressure sensors, charging for every item, making the set well over $700!. Found a small tire shop that did not try to sell me all the extras and got out the door for way less. But the small guys nail you too, as I carried in a set of tires that I had mounted myself (bought online), and simply wanted them balanced. The guy did not even have to put the car on the lift, or turn a lug nut, but nailed me for the same price for balancing - $40, and he was finished in less than 10 minutes. I should have made him put the car on the lift and mount them.
