As long as you have to take the wheels in to be balanced, you might as well have them install the tires.
And I thought that two-piece wheels were meant to facilitate wheel repairs (e.g., replace a bent or damaged outer hoop and reuse the same inner mounting portion), not to ease tire installation. But I'll also admit that I learn something new on this site almost every day.
In my dream garage, I own a tire installation and balancing machine...
