This is a NO Touch the RIM ( lack of a better description) for un- mounting and re-mounting tires on performance (or any) rims.
The Hunter Road Force is the best touch-less machine out there, but, that only ensures no scratches on the lip. Like you mentioned, I've rarely had luck with absolutely no scratches. There is always a ding here or there, most commonly on the lug holes or center bore area. Brought in my new wheels to a Certified BMW Repair Center and guess what? When I got home noticed a nice 3 inch long scratch along the lip. I have just learned to accept things like these.

Please do most pics, though! The V710 are very popular - one of my best friends just got a set for his E92. I'm interested in seeing how the et. 33 looks, as I run 38 in the rear.
