    I am taking my tires off and having the new ones (when they come in) mounted at a local shop, the question is, do I need to take off the front rotor for them to mount and balance the tire? I figure I need to leave it on, but thought I would ask.

    Cheers!

    Make sure to let them know that the powdercoat chips extremely easily on these wheels and to take extra care with them. I've seen a few posts here lately with people having their wheels chipped after taking them to have tires removed/installed. Inspect them well before and after.
