usually around and near the tip of the rim. sometimes on the backside of the rim where its adjacent to the tire bead they will scratch paint off as well. and also need to look out for spoke damage.
it's just a matter of the shop having the right tools and staff so your local discount tire might have both. not sure. i would make sure the shop owner is aware that you dont want mount marks on the wheels. my local discount tires had neither and my wheels came out damaged. actually most tire stores in my area do not have this mounter and ends up with mount marks. this is why i drive out to tirerack to get my tires wrapped.  my local wheel repair shop now has these tools so i will be consulting with them to fix my one sport wheel that was damaged by a local tire store when plugged.
with the right tools and staff there should be absolutely no damage at all.
