Default Touchless mounting WTF

I get my new wheels back from powder coat in a day or two so I was looking for a place to have the tires installed. I called America's Tire (Discount Tire), told them my wheel and tires specs and ask them if they would use the touchless machine for mounting. The guy told me they would be afraid of scratching them with touchless machine (makes me wonder if their techs don't know how to use it properly) but they would guarantee no damage with their standard mounting machine. I don't know how the touchless machine works but I thought the purpose behind it was to keep from scratching custom wheels.

I guess if they stand behind their work it doesn't matter what machine they use but I don't want to have to take them back for powder coat again.
