Wheel vendor that will mount tires of my choice with TPMS?

Does anyone have recommendations on a reasonably priced wheel vendor that will?...
- Allow me to select wheels (of course)
- Allow me to select ***ANY*** tire brand
- Install TPMS (compatible w/997)
- Mount tire
- Balance wheel/tire
- Ship

My other option is to buy the wheels, tires and TPMS separately, and have my local shop do the install, mount, and balance, but I would rather avoid transporting these huge tires/wheels back and forth.

I'm in NJ. Do the sipping costs vary that widely for wheels/tires that it would make a big difference?

Since you don't appear to have decided on specific wheels, why not do your investigation locally (where you live) and ask them? Several of the national tire brands also sell wheels and - obviously - they would be happy to do both for you.

I just bought a set of OZ racing tires with Michelin Sports cups mounted balanced and shipped home from Tirerack.

ForgeLine has mounted and balanced any tire I have wanted as a package. Good people to deal with.
