I call BS on 100miles. I was just at a hobby shop and did my buddies G35x lowering springs. Plus I did all the suspension on my other car plus another buddies lude. Let me guess WPAFB? There is gotta be a shop that can mount tires, the public needs tires, LOL. You went on base and tried to save some money and went to the hobby shop and got screwed. At our hobby shop they require you to mount and demount which I did with my last set, mind you not on the Z, not going to risk ******* up some Rays, but they did the balance. You wont get any money, just being honest. Caulk it up as a lesson learned. Dont take your car to the hobby shop and let them do anything on it. Dont mean to be blunt, because I think the hobby shop kicks *** for DIY, but no, you dont let them touch your car or your wheels. Like a couple guys said, call around and get them refinished, but yeah no touching of any hands that arent yours at the hobby shop brah.
