Sorry, don't trust any pre-mounts. Pro-Line have to be the WORST IMO. they only glue the outside 1-2mm of the tyre, and the rims are rubbish anyway.
GRP I haven't had any issues with, though I have only tried their truggy versions.
VP Pro are hit and miss, and the inserts are sketchy.
Medial Pro seemed quite good, though I don't believe they are available any more...
At least if you do it yourself you only have one person to blame if it fails half way through a main.
Once you find a technique that works for you you can glue up a set in around 1/2 hour with relatively glue-free fingers.
