I had no trouble getting National Tire and Battery to mount tires on wheels for me without even knowing what the vehicle was since I took them down in the back of my truck...that was a couple of years ago though.  

Race shops...at least locally...will mount any tires for you with no questions asked...though last I checked was last season.
