My thermometer pegs at 600F. It was wrapped all the way back around to 200F, and the porcelin-enameled grill racks now look like bubble wrap

I haven't checked it for further damage, but I wouldn't be surprised to find the bottom tray compromised. Did you just replace the whole grill?

ok dat dont sound right.

I used to know people that worked there, a long time ago - that's when I never really had a problem.

I don't know that Discount rounded the lugnut or if it was us when we did the spacers (Discount made no mention of it when repairing the tire though).

Hopefully they'll call me mid-day (or before I'm off of work) so I can plan to just pick it up w/o having to go home first.

i see...

rounding a nut usually happens when the tire places use standard vs metric and just pound away with their high impact guns thinking they have the right socket.

i hope they have a spare lug for you.

those lugs with washers are kind of hard to find at most stores.

Costco has them

I'm also wondering if they have to respray the whole rim... I think they would, no? To get a consistent colour and shine?

I'm so nervous it's going to look different than the others.

Really? That's good. Maybe I'll just go buy some rather than dealing with the hassle of asking them and possibly more bitching. :/
