Yes I do as well as a manual tire machine. Red never paid to have a tire mounted in his life, and I inherited that. A minor front end alignment can be done with turntables and a tape measure.
The only exception is the wife's car. I have it computer balanced.
Rookie, for everything except my truck and wifes car I use a beater bar and 2 tire irons. Neighbor has a coates machine but I can have one off the rim and back on before I can load it up and take it to the machine
I drive 2 many miles a week on highway so I pay for balance and alignment.
Not a rookie. Been breaking down tires since I was 5. ;-)
Still do plenty with irons. Rears off the tractors don't fit on the tire machine. But I use it when I can.
Anybody with half a nut will tell you to work smarter not harder. ;-)
By the way you got screwed on the tires. Just tuff it out you'll be walking normal in a week or so.
