So you can install wheels urself? No need to take to Tireshop?

I am getting my 166+UHP (mounted+balanced from previous owner) shipment tomorow.. wondering if i have to take them to tireshop to install or i can just mount them myself in garage by using the thing we use to replace flattires

You just have to know the appropriate torque requirement for the lug nuts and use a torque wrench. You should also retighten them again after about 100 miles.
