    those idiots told me they couldn't put tires on my wheels because they were 2 different bolt patterns... AFTER i already paid for everything. The guy was like "if you go over 65 those wheels will probably fly off" then I told him I was doin 115 on the way there haha. THEN the stupid idiot manager decides he wants to sell me "the right sized wheel"....well he showed me a rim that was SO ugly I wouldn't put it on a freaking lawnmower trailer. So pretty much the story is that I have 4 tires with the steel belts showing, and not one tire store will touch my car. GREAT.

    They knew what car they were for, and then he told me I couldn't bring the rims in because of "insurance reasons". It's all a bunch of BS. I know I could take my wheels into any tire store and get tires, but I'm not gonna spend $180 for labor when discount only charges $60.

    Just go to a local tire shop, I guarantee you they couldn't care less what car the rims and tires are going on. I hate bull**** that professional tire places give you. You don't need the BS, you just need the job to get done!

    Took my car to Sears for an alignment. They call me and tell me that the car needs new camber bolts and that I have aftermarket parts on my car and they are worried if they pull the strut bolts out it will destroy my spindles! !!!!!! I looked at the guy and said, just give me my ****ing keys. He was like sir, is there anything I can do. I told him he had done enough.

    This is the new age of untrained tire and alignment car shops. I have worked at many while in college and they will give you some training for a few days and send you on your way. Take your car to a mom and pop owned frame and tire shop, you will be happier in the long run.

    dude i hate those bastards, 1 i took them a rim and a brand new tire, I got it back Somehow with a nail in the tire, I said , they said sorry sir we'll get that patched right up, i said I don't care this tire was brand new notice the STICKER on it or where it was before you peeled it off bastard, 2nd I went to get a air check 70 miles from home, supposed to take 3 minutes, im waiting in line and these 2 women pull in right as the spot was opened to me, and the guy told them to wait but they refused and said they were in a hurry, Figure, So he lets them go and opens up a new spot with a ramp, I told them nooooo, my car is to low and will hit my 3" pipe. they said it'll clear i said yeah BS, they said come so i said okay, i went over it just fine got my tires fixed, then went to leave, what happens car wont move, gave it slight gas, then heard a pop, then the car was extremely loud from inside with the windows up, i shut the car off and looked under wow from exactly at the headers from off the back of the block to the Y pipe connector the exhaust was pulled off, my catback was bent, and my oxygen sensor wires were cut to ****, I said to them you stupid bastard word for word, he said don't worry sir we'll fix it promise, we'll get a tech out here right away, i said Yeah no you did enough damage, so i took a pry bar they had, they didnt like this part to much, and i bent there ramp just enough so my car could go over, pretty sure i f'd the hydraulic arm hahahahah, and got out, and while i was leaving held the e-brake and smoked them in first then second then left, there garage bays were filled with white puffy smoke, and my car was extremely loud, and my exhaust was dragging on the ground. i was so pissed i didnt care, the week before i got the motor installed so it had brand new exhaust and headers, so i left went to the muffler shop and had them fix it for 50 dollars. so a free air check cost me damage plus 50 dollars.

    Yeah, I found a little mom and pop place that sells used tires for $20 a piece, AND they wont sell them if they are less than 75% tread. They just have to order me some 245's and I'll be all set
