Where and how much is everyone getting your tires mounted? Also i order the cragars 15/8 SS's, the standard ones call for 14mm studs, but i also ordered those for the rear wheels also! Is this ok or not?

I got mine mounted at Firestone for free. My friend works there and did it for me.

I'm sure he would be able to take it to that exact same wal-mart--and that guy is fired anyway. Although at most that guy probably got moved to a different department. I guess the Walmart thing must depend on the location, around here it's about the best place in town for quality. Call around and get some prices. Start with the lowest and tell them if they scratch your wheel they will buy a new one. If they don't like that idea go to the next highest price.

I do my own at the shop I work at, otherwise we charge about $15 without dismounting or mounting wheels on car. We mount new tires for free if the tires were bought from us.
