              The problem is that 215/35 barely has any sidewall, and since its a 19" wheel the sidewalls are very stiff as well. Its very doable, but a bit more of a PITA then a 215/45 on a 16x9. I wouldn't blame the shop for not being able to do it, but I would blame them for charging you $140. Thats straight ridiculous, I never paid more them 60 bux to mount and balance a set of 4 tire. Shit, if you go to Costco they do it for 40! 5 to mount 5 to balance.

              Also, I know everyone here is a huge Falken fan, but 99% of the time I stretched tires on my old whips, they were either Dunlops, Contis, Toyo T1S'or Yokohama Intermediates if you wanna go real old school (90's), I can't stand how Falken's don't have lip protectors and they leave the entire rim lip exposed. Well, I guess some people are into that, I think it looks stupid...
