My driveway.

Grab a Mastercraft torque wrench during one of their 50% off sales at Crappy Tire, and a can of anti-seize. It takes about 10 minutes a corner with a little jack and some attention to properly applying anti-seize.

Way better than loading wheels in to your car. Total time is about 40 minutes for me.

With a hoist, and air driven impact wrench at the dealer, combined with the fact they won't prep the hub surface it probably takes about 20 minutes.
