New Tires Ordered

I've been through it. I feel your pain. I had the same thing happen to me. Plus they could not balance the tires right. AP tires is worth the drive.

I should have said something before I drove off...but I doubt they would have done anything to resolve it. I also checked the weights they put on the front wheels and they are very tall weights...looks kind of odd.

If your wheels were damage free you should have told them and offered to let them inspect before starting work. Let them know you will hold them responsible for damage and they can decide if they want the risk. If damaged, hold them responsible for resolving. Any good tire shop should be able to take the time to do this carefully...

You're right...but I messed up by not having them go over it before. My fault for not doing that...but that still doesn't excuse the fact that they screwed up. Oh well though; nothing I can do about it now though.
