Now you know why I do my own shit.

He tried the jack stand they have. It's too big to fit under the car.

I'm only lowered on swifts... Not like I'm tuckin' wheels into the fender for poop sakes! Fućk!

and what shop doesn't have 2x10's laying around for such occasions? really?

On a positive note, they didn't damage my car [/QUOTE]

that is exactly what i was thinking while reading the first part...thank gawd they didnt attempt to the point of damage...

Actually, this is not that uncommon... Most smaller dealerships/wheel/tire/alignment/shops won't be 'expecting' lowered cars. I've been to several alignment shops and wheel/tire places that weren't capable of helping me. That's why I'm glad for Discount Tire, they have an open bay and just use two lowered car jacks because of them selling the cheap-0-wheels that honda/vw drivers love.

No way! I'll buy them some wood to use for my car if I have to. I'm almost done with warranty, so I'll need to find a more performance minded shop to get other work done at. Like AMS or the GTR certified dealer in Whitby... Maybe I'll call the GTR dealership anyways.

What a coincidence! So is XwChriswX. He doesn't have a storm, though. He has a date.
