i was talking to my dpsm the other day about the car. he said that acura was requiring the dealers to buy the new machines to be able to sell the new nsx. you might want to look at your closest acura dealer and see if they have the equipment.

Any experienced tire shop can do it . It's not like they never done 20s. Who buy tires from dealerships anyway.

100% this theres no way a reputable tire shop cant change aluminum wheels without scuffing them. its not like the wheel has changed shape or aluminum is a brand new material.

no im not stupid enough to take the risk when honda says not to use anything other than those 2 machines. im taking mine to acura and anyone who shows up at my dealer asking im turning them away. im not paying for a 1100 dollar rim.

once the tires wear out, I'm turning those 20inch wheels in to a coffee table and 18x9 volk te37's replacing the dubs.
Which ones are you looking at?

No Honda dealerships in my area have proper equipment to change the tires without screwing up the wheels.

Is there a way to find out which dealership has the machine locally without having to call every one?

So, for Honda dealers that choose not to buy one of the recommended machines, will they eventually spend more than a new tire machine by paying for replacement wheels or will they just sublet these repairs out to another shop that has one of the recommended machines or that can do the job without damaging the wheel?
