I had to go get an estimate from a body shop and they cut me a check. Your story reminds me of one time I went to a quick lube place and the guy insisted on inflating all my tires to 45 psi because that's what the sidewall said the max pressure was. I tried to explain to him that just because it's the max, that doesn't make it the recommended pressure, as shown on the sticker inside the door. The idiot just dug his heels in and insisted. He said "Well that's Nissan's recommendation, right? Nissan doesn't make the tires now, do they? Bridgestone does, so I take Bridgestone's word for it over Nissan's!"
