I had the same problem from firestone a few months back. Next time, look for a place that does touch less/ lever less mounting and make sure they know what you are talking about. I was lied to into thinking that was the method used and had asked before hand. Long story short, they basically used a crow bar to pry off the tire. I sent Firestone corporate an email and that pretty much got the shop managers attention. I suggest you do the same. They would have fixed it but I would have to leave my car at the shop. No way in hell that was happening. I ended up getting a full refund. I could have asked for a new set, but I was seriously an inch from knocking the manager out for saying it didn't look that bad and that they "mount wheels for BMW's and Mercedes all the time." I will never have anything done at Firestone ever again. You would think a place that specializes in tires would be good at mounting them. Expensive lesson learned I guess.

Sorry to hear you had similar issues.
I was actually feeling bad about sort of implying they would mess up my wheels as I told them how I expected the wheels to be undamaged after the tire mounting. Not feeling bad about that now. Don |
