Are your PSS on yet?!
Ahh, you worry that perhaps the guys are gonna go "there"? Meh, we keep it clean.

Ok, on to the PSS

Yep, they're on, and it's bittersweet!

Tires are awesome, and much quieter than the stockers (granted the stockers were down to nuthin'). I'll know more once I start to wear 'em in.

Wheels are damaged. Why does this sh!t keep happening to me?! ANY time someone touches my wheels the fark 'em up!

I had a pre-install inspection, and we both agreed there was no damage on the wheels. Then, on post inspection when I pointed out damage on three of the four wheels...they denied that it had anything to do with them. That it was "impossible"! Dude said he'd take it next door (to the car wash) and have them "buffed out". I said "that's great, but it's not going to repair the damage".

Deny, deny, deny....

Once more the dude was all "that couldn't have happened here" and I stated "THEY.....WERE.....NOT.....DAMAGED. We inspected them together".

Needless to say I have the number of their mobile repair guy. They didn't even have the common courtesy to apologize.

fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuu Tire Kingdom!

Mr.happytheman.... sorry to hear what happened on the wheels, aren't they using touchless mounting system there?? I hope the damages is not very visible... and I hope the joy of riding with PSS will overcome the memory of damaged wheels!!

Yup, it's touchless..but there's still damage.

Nah, I'll get over it. The damage is not too visible..but it matters not, because ima get that sh!t fixed.

Thanks Alcheng.

I decided to give them an opportunity to take care of me. Shoulda listened to my gut.

Oh they will most definitely be paying for this. I assume they will likely lose money on me. They quoted me $141 before the work was performed, but when I showed 'em how much it was supposed to be (according to their contractual obligation with Tire Rack) they brought it down even lower than it should have been. A mere $114.

Edit: This isn't my first rodeo with damaged wheels.
