Tire shops that work on Tesla

Anyone know of decently priced tire shops that work on Tesla in Tokyo? I called around but many of them say they don't have the knowledge so they cant work on it or they will try but they are not sure. The ones that do it are charging me over 4man yen. . . .

I want to replace my tires with tires I bought online.

FYI, its crazy that Tesla doesn't work on tires purchased individually. . . . I originally contacted Tesla to replace tires and they said they had none in stock. I found ones online from a different shop but Tesla doesnt work with individually purchased tires and tireshops seem to flat out reject Tesla replacements due to air suspensions. . . .

As far as I know, the only uniqie thing about tesla is the jack points, jackpad, and putting it in jack mode. . .

Although I don’t have any real experience, I heard a shop called TireFitter in Yokohama, Japan provides tire replacement services. This shop is owned by a Tesla owner. Their websites are the following:
I hope it helps.

Almost all businesses will not install parts that you’ve purchased elsewhere.

Tire shops, however, almost always will.
 
Fuji Tires - Bought new summer tires off Rakuten and paid Fuji Tires to install them on my 21" rims.They charged me a more expensive labor fee because I didn't buy the tires from them directly but this was still way cheaper than buying the tires directly from them.

Yellow Hat - Up to 19" (Some places said they wouldn't touch my Tesla because they were worried about damaging the battery due to the proximity of the jack points to the battery... I had the jack stand rubber pads but they still refused.

Another Yellow Hat was happy to put my Tesla on the jack lift and install new winter tires on my 19" rims.

Local 3rd Party Car Shop specialising in non-Japanese cars. - Went here for a wheel alignment which was awfully expensive compared to my experience in the US.
